    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    "Die Darstellungen des Menschen in der Bibel sind vielschichtig und manchmal u?berraschend tiefgru?ndig. Bibelwissenschaftler versuchen heute, solche Texte aus verschiedenen Perspektiven und mit unterschiedlichen Methoden zu verstehen und zu interpretieren, oft abha?ngig von ihrem konfessionellen, regionalen und kulturellen Hintergrund. Der Band entha?lt Beitra?ge, die auf einer Konferenz ""westlicher"" (protestantischer und ro?misch-katholischer) und o?stlich-orthodoxer Exegeten in Ruma?nien gehalten wurden. Images of the human being in the Bible are multifaceted and sometimes surprisingly profound. Biblical scholars today try to understand and interpret such texts from different perspectives and with different methods, often depending on their confessional, regional, and cultural backgrounds. The volume presents papers given at a conference of ""western"" (Protestant and Roman-Catholic) and eastern orthodox exegetes in Romania."

This collection of essays presents the papers given at the Eighth International Orthodox-Western Symposium of New Testament Scholars in the Caraiman Monastery (Romania). The symposium was a project of the Eastern Europe Liaison Committee (EELC) of Studiorum Novi Testamenti Societas. Main subject matters of the volume are images and stories of the human being according to the New Testament and church tradition. All topics are discussed from a ""western"" (Protestant and Roman-Catholic) exegetical perspective as well as from an eastern orthodox point of view. In addition, several seminar papers deal with anthropological texts and conceptions in Paul, the synoptic Gospels, and John as well as with Philo and extra-canonical writings. A particular section presents reports on biblical scholarship in Romania, past and present."
