"These are solid studies which place the reader on the theological frontier, and at places where essential issues are faced. And Käsemann himself, in the introduction, expresses a hope that the essays will be received not as a set of university-acceptable exegetical proofs but as a challenge to ask new questions and test new approaches."

-Theology Today

"With their concise yet clear and highly readable style, these stimulating essays, which touch upon many of the fundamental problems of the New Testament (the nature of the Church, continuity, the sources of Pauline thought), cannot help but further the dialogue for which Käsemann sincerely longs."

-The Catholic Biblical Quarterly
