- Double-weighted statement
- A claim for double weighting rests on the originality and complexity of the monograph, and the range of sources with which it engages. It deals with the development of the tradition of atoning almsgiving in early Christianity. The inter-disciplinary research was complex as it required interaction with a number of fields (biblical studies, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, patristics) and analysis of an extensive and varied body of literature in multiple languages spanning over a millennium, from the Hebrew Bible to the Septuagint, from first and second century Christian writings in Greek to Latin Christian sources in the third century.
