Recognizing what we are reading—the genre—is crucial for understanding any written work, including the books of the New Testament. However, we may not always realize we use genre categories as we interpret, whether explicitly or implicitly. Embedded genres, or genres within genres, can substantively impact the interpretation of an entire New Testament book.

This short, accessible book by a widely respected scholar and seasoned teacher introduces embedded genres, their impact on New Testament interpretation, and how they contribute to the message of the New Testament authors. Jeannine Brown offers hermeneutical guidance for interpreting embedded genres and explores the hermeneutical questions they raise. She focuses on three case studies of embedded genres that have been contested, under-identified, or underappreciated across the New Testament corpus: the Christ poem in Philippians 2, riddles in Matthew, and the household code in 1 Peter.

Contents

  • How Do Embedded Genres Matter?
  • Does Paul Break into Song in Philippians 2? The Christ Poem in the Letter to the Philippians
  • Is Jesus a Riddler in Matthew? The Role of Riddles in the Gospel of Matthew
  • Why Put a Household Code in the Middle of a Letter? The Haustafel in 1 Peter
  • Conclusion: What Do Matryoshka Dolls and the New Testament Have in Common?
