First Century Christians in the Graeco-Roman World

The First Christians were members of households, possibly associations, and certainly cities in the first-century Graeco-Roman world before they embraced the preaching of the gospel. This six-volume series, which gathers contributors who are specialists in the intersection of the new Testament with the Graeco-Roman world, seeks for the first time to describe systematically the challenges, difficulties, and necessary adjustments involved in being a Christian in Graeco-Roman society in the various spheres of life.
