Summary: If you study Linguistics and/or the Bible, read this book.
Comment: This book is an excellent example on how interdisciplinary studies are a great good to the field of Biblical Studies. It is done without any religious bias and focuses on the text itself rather than its implications to the Church.

This book examines how patterns shown in modern sociolinguistic studies can be applied to the ancients as well. The information is in a very organized manner and extensive appendices are very helpful if you wish to look specifically at one part of the text.

The book helps show the good in the continuing trend to apply linguistics to the realm of Biblical Studies. This is something that anyone who is trying to study Luke and Acts with any textual emphasis should read.

Rating: 5
Summary: A great book
Comment: If you can get a hold of this book, please do because it looks at many interesting sociolinguistic issues. It also does this without compromising the fact that this is both a linguistic text and a religious document.
