Professor Ray M. Lozano discusses his exploration of proskuneo and reverence towards Jesus in his new book, The Proskynesis of Jesus in the New Testament, one of the latest publications in The Library of New Testament Studies.
How would you describe the aim of this book?
Basically, the aim of my book is to carefully investigate the use of the Greek term proskuneo in the New Testament works Mark, Matthew, Luke-Acts, John, Hebrews, and Revelation in order to determine the kind of reverence or worship Jesus is depicted receiving in these works, whether it be in the milder sense of reverence shown to mere humans or in the stronger sense of worship shown to divine beings.
