Language: English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n How to read Plutarch in the context of New Testament studies? Almost 50 years after the seminal project on the topic led by Hans Dieter Betz, this volume elevates once again the issue’s priority. Bridging discourses is a fitting description both of the religio-philosophical spirit of Plutarch, the Platonist philosopher and priest of Apollo at Delphi, and the task of bringing his writings into fruitful dialogue with the writings of the New Testament, Hellenistic Judaism, and Early Christianity. Taken together, these authors constitute the religious Platonism of the early imperial era. Contributions from the fields of New Testament, classics, philosophy, religious studies, and patristics explore various ways of how to establish these bridges.  \n\n                                         Editorial Reviews                   About the Author   Rainer Hirsch-Luipold is Professor of New Testament and History of Ancient Religions, Faculty of Theology, University of Bern and Extraordinary Professor, University of Stellenbosch (SA), Department of Ancient Studies.
