Dr. Keith Reich serves as an Adjunct Professor at Chowan University, actively contributing to student development through biblical and theological education. He emphasizes guiding students to discover their personal connection to Christian narratives within a supportive academic environment.
His academic credentials include:
- PhD in Religion/New Testament from Baylor University
- MDiv from Princeton Theological Seminary
- BA in History/Greek from Baylor University
Reich's research centers on rhetorical and literary analysis of New Testament texts, with particular expertise in the Gospel of Luke's characterization of Jesus, Markan narrative techniques, and Pauline rhetoric in 1 Corinthians. His methodology integrates Greco-Roman rhetorical theory with historical-critical exegesis to explore narrative construction and theological implications in early Christian writings.
Publications from 2008-2011 reveal consistent scholarly focus on rhetorical figures in Gospel narratives and Pauline literature. His monograph Figuring Jesus (Brill, 2011) establishes a framework for analyzing rhetorical devices in Luke-Acts, while conference presentations examine specific passages including the Sermon on the Plain and Mark 16:8, demonstrating interdisciplinary engagement with literary theory and historical context.
