Overview

C. K. Barrett’s scholarship helped change the face of New Testament scholarship in the twentieth century. Barrett was a committed Methodist minister. Throughout his scholarly career, he never let his work get in the way of his pastoral calling. This deep commitment to pastoral care shows throughout Barrett’s work. Barrett is very careful to clothe his rigorous scholarship in language that is accessible and meaningful. For this reason, though he was critical of many other Christian traditions, he has earned a wide readership outside of his own denomination.
