David Bentley Hart undertook this new translation of the New Testament in the spirit of "etsi doctrina non daretur", "as if doctrine is not given". Reproducing the texts' often fragmentary formulations without augmentation or correction, he has produced a pitilessly literal translation, one that captures the texts' impenetrability and unfinished quality while awakening listeners to an uncanniness that often lies hidden beneath doctrinal layers.

This book argues that Paul’s phrase “the elemental spirits of the world” (ta stoicheia tou kosmou) in Colossians and Galatians refers to a blend of hostile spiritual powers and the basic religious “ABC’s”—rules, rituals, and philosophies—through which those powers enslave people before Christ. 1. What stoicheia meant in the ancient world In classical Greek, stoicheia usually means elements or building blocks: letters of the alphabet, basic principles, or the four elements (earth, air, fire, water). In Jewish and Greco-Roman thought, these “elements” and the stars could ...
