Binding the Strong Man - 20th Anniversary Edition

Overview

Since its publication in 1988, Binding the Strong Man has been widely recognized as a landmark in contemporary biblical criticism. Applying a multidisciplinary approach called "socio-literary method," Myers integrates literary criticism, socio-historical exegesis, and political hermeneutics in his investigation of Mark as a "manifesto of radical discipleship."

Ched Myers, a writer, educator, and "theological animator," is the author of several books, including Who Will Roll Away the Stone? and "Say to This Mountain." He has taught at many theological schools in North America and works with Bartimaeus Cooperative Ministries, where he focuses on building biblical literacy, church renewal, and faith-based witness for justice.
