Publishers Weekly
"The depth and big-picture perspective of Witherington's work will
succeed in bringing serious Bible students a fresh appreciation for
the New Testament story." Darrell L. Bock
"The New Testament is a collection of a wide variety of stories.
Ben Witherington is a sure guide through this library of stories
and how they were collected. His book is a fresh take on
introducing the New Testament. It comes highly recommended for its
treatment of the wealth of testimony to the story." Craig S.
Keener
"Synthesizing much of his earlier work in a very readable way, Ben
Witherington traces the development of New Testament stories into
our New Testament books and canon. Along the way he rightly
challenges time-worn schemes of an evolution from lower to higher
Christology and also retells stories of New Testament individuals
without losing the distinctives of the various New Testament
sources where we find them." James C. Howell
"What a valuable book for the beginner eager to probe the New
Testament more deeply! Ben Witherington has packaged his enormous
learning in clear, understandable, accessible ways. With its
excellent illustrations and charts, The New Testament Story will be
an open window into the world of stories found in the Bible."
