This is the first paperback edition of the enlighteningOxford University hardcover published in 2002.

Her careful attention to the bodilyexperience of subjection and violation that constitutedslavery makes this an indispensable book for anyoneinterested in slavery in early Christianity. Includes specialchapters on Jesus and Paul.
