| 520 | _a"The Literature and History of New Testament Times" by J. Gresham Machen is a scholarly examination of the historical context surrounding the New Testament, written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the backgrounds of early Christianity, touching upon essential elements such as the Roman, Greek, and Jewish influences that shaped the formation of the Christian church and its teachings. Machen's objective is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the New Testament as a historical document that records significant events in Christian history. At the start of the text, the author emphasizes the importance of studying Bible history to enrich the understanding and teaching of Christianity. He warns against the modern church's neglect for Bible history, positing that such disregard erodes its foundational strength. Machen asserts that grasping the historical events of the apostolic age not only equips believers with knowledge but also fosters a more profound faith. He outlines the contents of the work, suggesting that instead of merely being treated as religious texts, the New Testament writings should be explored for their historical circumstances to fully appreciate their significance and divine authority in the life of the church.
