Review Quotes




"[Offers] an enlightening analysis of Jesus' table fellowship for Christian academics and laypersons alike. . . . Citing his own experiences overseas, the outreach efforts of the "Scum of the Earth" church in "Denver (of which he is a member), and other Christian ministries, Blomberg's application of 'contagious holiness' is a promising resource for Christians living in a post-9/11 age."

"A pivotal book for understanding how meals fit into the mission of Jesus and the church."

"Dr. Blomberg not only addresses current disputes about the 'table fellowship' practices of the historical Jesus, but also traces out the historical and theologically laden implications of table fellowship across the canon of Scripture, and issues a call to contemporary Christians to reform their habits in this matter."
