""This book is the most ambitious attempt yet to reconstruct Peter's own theology from the various sources in the New Testament. Many have said that this cannot be done. They should not continue to say that without reading this book."" --Richard Bauckham, University of Cambridge
""Studies on the theology of Paul abound. But what about Simon Peter? Can a 'theology of Peter' even be written? In his impressive Vox Petri, Gene Green outlines striking and often-overlooked points of convergence between the testimony of Peter as preserved in the Gospel of Mark, the Acts of the Apostles, and 1 Peter. The end result is a major contribution to Petrine studies and a must-read for anyone interested in whether the voice of Peter can still be heard in the pages of the New Testament."" --Brant Pitre, author of Jesus and the Last Supper
""Recent scholarship has sought to revisit Simon Peter's long-neglected and frequently caricatured profile as the leading disciple of Jesus in Scripture and early Christian memory. But what might happen if one were to take one logical step further, drawing out and synthesizing such glimpses of a remembered Peter into a more coherent picture of this first among the apostles? Gene Green offers his answer in a composite theology of Peter as a New Testament teacher and writer: one who 'got by with a little help from his friends, ' yet can rightly be pictured at the wellspring and 'head of the table' of Christian theology. Warmly recommended as a book with which to think about the shape of the apostolic church, its leadership, and its beliefs."" --Markus Bockmuehl, University of Oxford
