J. Daniel Hays
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In 'Return to Me' Mark Boda does an outstanding job of explicating the oft-neglected theme of repentance, moving across the canon as he demonstrates the important role of this theme within biblical theology. A welcome new addition to the New Studies in Biblical Theology series. I recommend it heartily.”
A Little Book for New Bible Scholars
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“A delightful read and absolutely on target, A Little Book for New Bible Scholars gets my highest praise and recommendation. It should be required reading early in the program for all students preparing for ministry.”
Theology
“Face to Face with God is another outstanding contribution to the ESBT series. Alexander does a superb job of explaining the important OT background that lies behind the wonderfully rich theological significance of the portrayal of Jesus Christ as Priest and Mediator in the book of Hebrews. A much-needed volume, this work pulls together numerous central themes of the OT—the presence of God, the function of the Tabernacle, the holiness of God, sacrifice and intercession, priesthood, covenant—and demonstrates how the trajectory of these themes comes together and finds fulfillment in Jesus Christ.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This three-volume series on preaching the Psalms is a masterful work, combining exegesis, hermeneutics, biblical theology, and homiletics. Abraham Kuruvilla astutely guides the preacher through the most difficult step of sermon development in the Psalms. In my opinion, this is the best work on preaching the Psalms that is available today, and it should be on the shelf of all preachers who aspire to proclaim the wonderful message of the Psalms to their congregations.”
Reading the Bible for a Change, Second Edition
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Ray Lubeck’s Reading the Bible for a Change is an outstanding textbook for teaching Christians how to engage in serious Bible study and interpretation. This work is very reader-friendly, guiding the student through important, often complex issues of analysis and interpretation, while presenting this material in a very understandable manner, supported by helpful examples. I highly recommend it!”
The Charge of God’s Royal Children
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Timothy Howe’s The Charge of God’s Royal Children is a helpful, erudite contribution to our understanding of the imago Dei. Howe employs an effective and insightful use of literary analysis to enhance exegesis and to inform a more rich and full theological understanding of the imago Dei and the role that this concept plays in Genesis 1–11. I heartily recommend it to theologians, biblical scholars, professors, and pastors.”
The Mirage Shall Become a Pool
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“The Mirage Shall Become a Pool is perhaps the most hermeneutically sophisticated and exegetically thorough work on the theme of social justice and poverty in the New Testament that has been written to date . . . This is a critical work for anyone interested in the biblical view of social justice and the Christian obligation to the poor.”
The Prophets and the Apostolic Witness
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“The Prophets and the Apostolic Witness is an outstanding book and is extremely helpful for Christians seeking to interpret and apply the Old Testament Prophets. The editors have assembled many of the top scholars in this field (most of whom preach this material as well), each bringing expertise and insight into the issue of Christian interpretation of the Prophets and engaging not only with the prophetic text but also with the use of the Prophets in the New Testament and in the early church. This is a great book and I recommend it wholeheartedly.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In Walking the Way of the Wise, Mitchell Chase traces and interconnects the wisdom theme throughout the biblical story, demonstrating that wise living is a foundational and character-defining feature of the life that God's people are called to live. This book is strong academically, but it is also very readable and engaging, even enriching to one's own personal walk with God. I highly recommend it.”
