“This is a fascinating and carefully conducted study of one class of non-continuous Greek New Testament texts, the amulets ... This volume will serve as an important reference work for those interested in early Christian amulets in their own right, but more widely it opens up larger discussions about the use of non-continuous texts for understanding the transmission of the early text of the New Testament, and for contributing more evidence concerning how the New Testament text was used by some early Christian believers.” – Dr. Paul Foster,The Expository Times
“Jones has accumulated a valuable repository of information concerning the select amulets ... Such helpful collection of materials, conveniently translated into English, would make this book useful for scholars of early Christianity-not to mention Jones's careful analyses and interesting tangential discussions along the way.” – Dr. Peter Malik,Journal of Theological Studies "In an expensive series where all-too-often we see an excess of bland and indiscriminate theses on obscure topics, it is splendid to be able to commend another volume that lifts it from the expected troughs. Jones’ work is familiar to many of us, thanks to his blog and other writings; his is a name we can expect to see regularly in the limelight." Prof. J.K. Elliott, Novum Testamentum
