Traces Of Greek Philosophy And Roman Law In The New Testament (1896)

Traces of Greek Philosophy and Roman Law in the New Testament is a book written by Edward Hicks in 1896. The book explores the influence of Greek philosophy and Roman law on the New Testament, specifically on the teachings of Jesus and the apostles. Hicks analyzes the similarities and differences between the philosophical and legal systems of Greece and Rome and the teachings of the New Testament. He argues that the New Testament writers were influenced by these systems, and that their teachings reflect this influence. The book is divided into chapters that focus on specific topics, such as the concept of God, ethics, and social organization. Hicks uses examples from the New Testament to illustrate his points and provides historical context for the philosophical and legal systems he discusses.
