New Testament Onomastics

A study of semantic qualities borne by the various New Testament personal and place names. It is a combination of prosopography and onomasticon, while ultimately seeking to develop an overarching semantic theory of New Testament names. It is a search for all "metadata" provided by the  naming practices in late antiquity. All information, whether epigraphic, ostraca, papyri, that can be found on every name used in the NT will be listed lexigraphically, indicating, wherever possible, besides the literary context also information regarding provenance, social status, religion.
