Examines the tensions found in scholarly discussions of the ethical content of Ephesians 4.17-6.9, focusing on the inclusion, exclusion or integration of the reader into society's outside world.
"This is a very insightful study based upon careful analysis of the social convention of the Greco-Roman world and a strong reflection on the theology of Ephesians... [Darko] asks the pertinent question: can the values promoted in the letter be normative Christian virutes for all cultures? That question remains, but at least Darko has put the exegetical basis for an answer on a firmer foundation." Journal for the Study of the New Testament Booklist 2009
