Where others have focused primarily on the fact that Scripture is a source for Christian ethics, Hays goes further in establishing how it functions in such a manner, bringing exegesis, ethics, and hermeneutics into fruitful discussion. Once again, this book is distinguished by a deep attentiveness to Scripture. Hays has also written on the subject of New Testament ethics in The Moral Vision of the New Testament (1996). Paul’s letters forged a rich and illuminating correspondence between what would later be recognized as the two parts of the Christian canon. He’s perhaps best known for his 1989 work, Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul. In that book Hays demonstrates how close attention to the text and to techniques of literary composition reveals an apostle who, far from opportunistically and irresponsibly co-opting the words of the Old Testament, was a sensitive and perceptive reader and interpreter of Scripture. ![]() ![]() The professor of New Testament at Duke Divinity School originally studied English literature, giving his reading of Scripture a pronounced literary sensibility.

In a unique blend of history and reflection, Seidule deconstructs the truth about the Confederacy-that its undisputed primary goal was the subjugation and enslavement of Black Americans-and directly challenges the idea of honoring those who labored to preserve that system and committed treason in their failed attempt to achieve it.
