This work containing seven books is an attempt to understand some important aspects of the historical background to the theology of some of the important books of the New Testament and to try and answer questions regarding the who, what, where and when of the New Testament literature, the events and their interpretations. The truth, which lies behind the New Testament, must be uncovered to give us its actual intentions and sense in our own time and place. Nonetheless, studying the background of the New Testament together with the aims and motives of the important New Testament books and letters is imperative for every student of the Bible preparing for the ministry and a lack of this study will leave a big gap in the total comprehension of the New Testament. This book follows the new Serampore B.D. syllabus as well as the M.Div and B.Th courses from the teaching experience of the author.
