Books by Associate Professor Darian (Biola University Lockett

Provides a look at purity language within the "Epistle of James", arguing against restricting the meaning of purity language to the individual moral sphere. This volume offers a taxonomy of purity language, applied as a heuristic guide to understand the function of purity and pollution in the epistle.

Introduces the "Catholic Epistles" and discusses the different interpretive approaches which have been used to gain a clearer understanding of them. This book interacts with some of the ideas of Rob Wall and David Nienhuis regarding the various thematic/theological connections running through the texts.
