Book Giveaway: Jesus’ Literacy: Scribal Culture and the Teacher from Galilee—Chris Keith


THIS GIVEAWAY HAS BEEN COMPLETED:
No more entries will be accepted.

 As mentioned earlier, my monograph Jesus’ Literacy: Scribal Culture and theTeacher from Galilee will be out in paperback at the end of March according to T&T Clark, the publishers.  To my knowledge, this is the first full book-length treatment of the topic.  For those who are interested in the topic, the paperback edition should be welcomed news because the hardback costs $100.  Fortunately, though, T&T Clark is a great press with great editors, and they’ve decided to let us give away a hardback copy here on The Jesus Blog.  

You know the rules.  You can enter in four ways:  (1) comment here; (2) share this webpage on facebook, then comment to let us know you did; (3) sign up to follow, then comment to let us know you did; (4) tweet this webpage, then comment to let us know you did.  We’ll announce the winner in a couple weeks!

    Blogged it (since I don't twitter), which means Facebook will pick it up, and I've also mentioned it in GooglePlus. Now I'm commenting. And hoping.

    Chris, from what I've seen, you're a fine fellow and a heck of an engineer. But a book that sells for $100 should come with a year's free technical support, a bonus CD containing bloopers and outtakes from your writing of the book, and a second pair of pants.

      Larry, I cannot even come close to disagreeing with you. It's an odd thing not to be able to afford to buy one's own book!

      Chris, I get it. When I billed by the hour at the big law firm, I was not able to afford my own free time.
