John Wesley said that the gospel "knows of ... no holiness but social holiness" and the exploration of this idea is the theme of this book. What does it mean when personal piety isn't really the point? Through an overview of the biblical history we get an insight into what social holiness might mean for a holy nation and how this includes economic relationships and security concerns. It is a lively and readable theology book from a historian (favourite sentence: "When Jesus was born, probably about 5 B.C.")
