The Seven Last Words
The Seven Last Words reveals the powerful implications for contemporary followers of Jesus in the final words from the cross. Fr. Crosby leads us into a meditation that reflects on each word in the context of the Gospel, and of Jesus' time as well as ours. Every chapter includes an application of the word's enduring message, using particular examples ("ikons") from contemporary life that enflesh the world for readers today. The Seven Last Words makes profound spiritual reading not only for personal Lenten reflection but for groups studying the scriptures it will make these verses come alive.

House of Disciples
The household was the basic unit of the early church; it also constituted the basic unit of political economy until the Industrial Revolution. This richly detailed work uses the notion of house as a unifying theme, establishing the identity and concerns of the early Christian churches. What emphases did Matthew's gospel have for that audience - which Crosby establishes was urban-based and prosperous - and what does it mean to First World Christians today? Through an in-depth exploration of Matthew's gospel and its socioeconomic milieu, 'House of Disciples' shows how the world of the early church continues to challenge Christians nineteen hundred years later. It makes a unique contribution to both New Testament scholarship and the practice of a contemporary spirituality.

The Craft of History and the Study of the New Testament
Do professional historians and New Testament scholars use the same methods to explore the past? This interdisciplinary textbook introduces students of the New Testament to the vocabulary and methods employed by historians. It discusses various approaches to historiography and demonstrates their applicability for interpreting the New Testament text and exploring its background. Overviews of the philosophy of history, common historical fallacies, and the basics of historiography are followed by three exegetical studies that illustrate the applicability of various historical methods for New Testament interpretation.
