1 Corinthians 1–4

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In this project, of truly breathtaking scope, Oh-Young Kwon brings together into mutually illuminating conversation the world of 1st century Corinth as addressed by Paul and contemporary Korean Confucian culture. As such it is a work of remarkable hermeneutical interest as well as a substantial contribution to the study of 1 Corinthians.”

A Pauline Theology of Justification

Theology

“Developing Prothro’s more technical study, Both Judge and Justifier (2018), this book offers a fresh view of justification in Paul through the lens of the divine (two-sided) contention against sin. Its theological depth, broad grasp of the tradition, and clarity of exposition should ensure that this work becomes, for professional scholars and students alike, a standard resource not only on justification but on Pauline theology generally for many years to come.”

Gift Upon Gift

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“With an impressive critical command of scholarship on the Fourth Gospel since Bultmann, this study will play a significant role in the ongoing quest to see the Gospel correctly aligned within its matrix in the Jewish tradition. It represents a notable contribution to Jewish-Christian understanding as well as to Johannine scholarship.”

Setting Our Hearts upon the Deep

Theology

“In this retrieval of a significant biblical motif, Novello shows that lament is not complaint but leads to intensification of relationship with God. The central discussion of Christ’s lament upon the cross through Psalm 22 is an original contribution to Christology in its own right. In the present situation of the church and the world, it is hard to think of a timelier theological offering than this readable and well-informed work.”

The Gospel of John

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This engaging and very accessible work draws the reader deeply into the Gospel of John through the trajectory of the hitherto neglected motif of worship. Carefully distinguishing three dimensions of worship (the confessional, the sacramental, and the ethical) John Paul Heil convincingly shows the motif to be so pervasive in the gospel as to render the entire document an invitation to a life-giving worship of God in, with, and through Jesus.”
