'Hell': A Hard Look at a Hard Question
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
Foreword
“This book is an impressive, thorough discussion of a thorny question. Dr Powys is at home in many branches of biblical studies . . . He examines the biblical evidence carefully and sets his case out lucidly and with real insight, showing convincingly how ill-founded are many ancient and many recent views on the fate of the unrighteous. His own solution of a set of complex exegetical and theological issues is judicious and clearly the end result of careful thought.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This fine commentary fully deserves a place alongside the excellent commentaries we have on this rich and profound letter. Hoehner leaves no stone unturned. He pays meticulous attention to the text and has an unrivaled knowledge of the literature. Not all will be persuaded by his stout defense of Pauline authorship, but all will appreciate his careful exegesis.”
Jesus and the Eyewitnesses, 2nd ed.
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Another blockbuster from the productive pen of Richard Bauckham. . . . Not to be missed!”
Theology
“Shakes the foundations of a century of scholarly study of the Gospels. There are surprises on every page. A wealth of new insights will provoke lively discussion for a long time to come. Readers at all levels will be grateful for Bauckham's detective work that uncovers clues missed by so many.”
Theology
“This book is a stunning achievement by an outstanding scholar and gifted teacher. Here the fruit of wide reading and reflection over many years is set out most attractively. Students and scholars alike will appreciate the clarity of the discussion, the nuanced judgment on disputed issues and the guidance given to further reading. I particularly welcome the author's 'witness by witness' approach in his exposition of New Testament theology: the distinctive themes of the individual writings and the unifying threads both receive careful attention.”
History & Biography
“This excellent book is lively, learned, and accessible. Stephen Wilson is master of a very wide range of early Christian and Jewish writings: there is no comparable discussion available. Scholars and students alike will value the author's clarity and balanced judgment.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Simply a stunning achievement. . . . Scholar and student alike will appreciate its admirable clarity and its numerous fresh suggestions. This wide-ranging book has no rival: it will be the book on the parables for the next decade and beyond.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Every teacher and student of Matthew's Gospel will want to read these lively essays by one of the most distinguished biblical scholars of our time. Ulrich Luz's multivolume commentary on Matthew is one of the finest exegetical achievements of the twentieth century. These essays distill much of the wisdom of that great commentary, but they also develop further some of its most stimulating insights. Luz's carefully nuanced and clearly expressed discussions of central Matthean themes and topics will be appreciated by a wide readership.”
The Theology of Paul the Apostle
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Surely this is James Dunn's best book so far. His magisterial, lucid exposition of Paul's thought will be welcomed warmly by scholars, teachers, and students alike. This is a work of outstanding scholarship: there is no comparable book in English.”
