I would show this to all my friends. Slow start, and seemed to have varying degrees of pacing/holding-interest for me. He gives an apologetic for the "pseudonymous" authorship (letters penned under some else's name) of the pastoral epistles and 2 Peter as not intending to be deceptive, but innocently following accepted literary conventions. I'm not sure if it will stick - but it is definitly worth a shot. The two books work well in tandem.. Overall, I found this one to be boring and I had to force myself to finish it. The fluid narrative and abundant details are so vivid that the reader cannot helpbut want to learn more about the Prophets. I'm looking for a good copy to buy for him for Christmas!.

He is the author of more than one hundred journal articles and has published eight books in Hungarian including Introduction to Biblical Theology and Introduction to the New Testament.He writes from within the Catholic tradition, but his work is valuable for non-Catholics as well. All of this will stimulate scholars and instruct students. From the Back Cover "Denis Farkasfalvy applies his astonishing learning and theological acumen to the theology of Scripture, especially with regard to the inadequately investigated history and meaning of inspiration. If there is not agreement on every point, readers will find him a knowledgeable and agreeable conversation partner."--Everett Ferguson, Distinguished Scholar in Residence, Abilene Christian University "One might not have thought it possible to do so many things so well as Denis Farkasfalvy does here.
