It seems strange that NT scholars scholars would be so weak on background and culture. Even, I, the lowly Seminary student must do extensive research on culture and historical background every time I do an IBS for a class! Now I understand why it's hard to find good material - - apparently nobody's writing it. My last IBS was on 1 Peter 3:1-7 and it was tough finding material on the contemporary culture and society of the people Peter was writing to. Wow!
