Daniel J. Scholz, The Catholic Epistles, Hebrews, and Revelation. Introducing the New Testament. Winona, MN: Anselm Academic (anselmacademic.org), 2016. Pages, 236. Paper, $20.95.

The New Testament books covered in this helpful introductory study include the nine books beyond the gospels, Acts, and Paul’s letters. They are probably the least read or studied part of the New Testament. Scholz, associate professor at Cardinal Stritch University in Milwaukee, provides a thorough introduction to each in this rich array of texts. Along with an exposition of the canonical texts, he also includes brief surveys of other related extra-canonical texts dated to roughly the last quarter of the first century and into the middle of the second. This can serve as a very informative resource for college and graduate-level courses on the New Testament and early Christianity.
