Argues that the conflict in "1 Corinthians" is driven by lust for honour and Paul's use of the paradigm of the cross. This title examines the letter of "1 Corinthians", which presents a unique expose of numerous aspects of social life in the first-century Greco-Roman world where honour was of central importance.

For 2000 years, Judaism and Christianity have been at odds with one another. The problem at the heart of the division is the concept of messiah. This title looks at the concept of messiah from an historical perspective and examines its roots in ancient Jewish literature, and its development within the Christian tradition.
Offers an examination of Jesus' claims in the gospels to be 'God's Equal' with reference to the historical Jesus and the Christology of the early church. This title argues that Jesus implicitly claimed to be God's equal and that the Synoptic Gospels on the basis of these claims developed their Christology of Jesus as God's Son.
Depictions of the Son of Man in the Gospel of "Matthew" and in the "Parables of Enoch" (Par En) raise questions about their relationship. This work examines the relevant passages containing the Term 'Son of Man' in both "Matthew" and the "Par En". It discusses the meaning and origin of the term 'Son of Man', and the influence of Par En on Matthew.
While many schools of thought arose on the subject, Stoicism and Epicureanism dominated the philosophical landscape for nearly 500 years, often locked in bitter rivalry with each other. This work explores the moral philosophy of Epictetus, a former Roman slave and Stoic teacher whose writings are the most compelling defence of ancient Stoicism.
Based on the author's dissertation (doctoral)--King's College, London, 2013.
