It has been more than two decades since the publication of George Kennedy's influential New Testament Interpretation Through Rhetorical Criticism (1984). The essays in Words Well Spoken demonstrate the influence of Kennedy's work on New Testament studies. The essays offer applications of his method to canonical New Testament books and provide more general discussions of rhetorical analysis. Kennedy's thoughtful response articulates his present thinking about the New Testament and demonstrates why this scholar continues to be of such value to New Testament studies.
This cross-disciplinary approach has opened new avenues of research that extend to many aspects in New Testament criticism. -Cecil Wooten, Professor of Classics, University of North Carolina
Anyone interested in rhetoric, New Testament studies or perhaps especially in anecdotal narrative of how each of these players got involved in the rhetorical study of the New Testament will enjoy this book....Go get this book, pull up a chair, and get ready for good remembrances and challenging gestures for yet new paths of discovery on the path ahead in rhetorical study. -- André Resner, Hood Theological Seminary -- Homiletic
