This work investigates the concept of trust as a foundational theological and social category within the New Testament texts. Teresa Morgan, a scholar of Greco-Roman history and early Christianity, examines how the language of trust—often translated as faith or belief—functions as a complex relational dynamic between the divine and the human community. By situating these texts within their original historical and cultural contexts, she argues that trust serves as the primary mechanism for establishing and maintaining covenantal relationships in the early Christian movement.
