From Robert Jewett to KK Yeo to Hii Kong Hock to..??

It's rather rare to be in the company of three generations of scholars in a conference. Yet this was my experience participating in the Symposium on Romans: The Relevance of Hermeneia Commentary on Romans for Malaysian Culture and Theology that has just concluded a while ago.


Organised by the Sabah Theological Seminary (STS), Sabah, this Symposium brought together three scholars - Prof Robert Jewett (centre) who mentored Prof K. K. Yeo (right) who mentored Dr Hii Kong Hock (lect, who is Lecturer in New Testament Studies at STS) - all of them with special passion and interest in Paul's Letter to the Romans.

So the next question is this: Who will be the next privileged scholar to be mentored by Kong Hock that would continue on the tradition of working on Romans?
