"This book provides a literary analysis of New Testament texts on marriage, sex, family,
and celibate ideals. It seeks out to explore if, how, and eventually to what extent
the New Testament favors sexual abstinence. The core of this study consequently consists
of fresh perspectives on the issue of sexual abstinence in the New Testament through
close readings of 1 Cor 7; Gal 3:28; Matt 19:10-12; and Mark 12:18-27/Matt 22:23-33/Luke
20:27-40, with a keen eye to the many ambassadors of abstinence in the texts - characters
exhibiting sexual abstinence given a favorable characterization and function. As a
comprehensive literary analysis of these texts from this perspective lacks precedent
in contemporary biblical scholarship, the study is a valuable contribution to the
ongoing scholarly debate on the biblical views on sex and marriage"
