Drawing from Michel Foucault's understanding of power, David A. Kaden explores how relations of power are instrumental in forming law as an object of discourse in the Gospel of Matthew and in the Letters of Paul.

Discussions of law proliferate in situations where the relations of power within social groups come into contact with social forces outside the group. David A.

For this he relies heavily on cross-cultural, ethnographic materials from legal anthropology.
