Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Casillas wrote this book with the heart of a pastor and with the biblically based conviction that Christ saves believers not only from God’s wrath but in order that we may increasingly image God’s holiness. Beyond Chapter and Verse supplies Christians with a theological framework and method for applying Scripture to our everyday lives. He suggests that our interpretive quest is to distinguish the time-bound elements from the timeless truths, and he supplies a host of Old and New Testament examples that model an approach to Scripture that takes seriously the power of the gospel to save—past, present, and future. He helpfully distinguishes his approach from legalism, defines Christian liberty, and saturates his discussion with rich and careful biblical exposition. This thoroughly researched book is worshipful and will help those of us in Christ become more who we already are and who Christ saved us to be.”
Theology
“Brent Parker assesses new covenant ecclesiology clearly, thoroughly, and convincingly. Defending a classic view of typology and standing against both dispensational and classic covenantal theologies, he shows that the biblical authors viewed Christ as old covenant Israel’s antitype—the substitutionary representative of Israel who fulfills their identity, vocation, prophecies, and promises. Christ is the true Israel, and all those covenantally united to him by faith become God’s new Israel by extension, whether Jews or Gentiles.”
Exegetical Gems from Biblical Hebrew
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Truly a ‘refreshing guide’ to Hebrew grammar and Old Testament interpretation! Hardy’s mastery of the biblical languages is matched with clear explanations and great exegetical examples. He writes with the skill of a scholar, the seasoning of a teacher, and the heart of a shepherd who cares deeply about biblical faithfulness. This book will motivate students to persevere in Hebrew study, and it will show them how to apply the concepts they are learning. I am delighted to have such a volume to use in the classroom.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This scholarly study of Ephesians 4:30 considers the meaning and lasting significance of Paul’s allusion to Isaiah 63:10 (and potentially Psalm 78:41) that warns against ‘grieving’ the Holy Spirit. It reinforces how a Christian’s speech, behavior, and attitudes can disrupt church unity and vex or provoke our impassible, impassioned God. Bridging linguistics, theology, and ethics, Norcha draws together exegesis with biblical, historical, systematic, and practical theology in ways that should serve the church worldwide.”
How Did They Read the Prophets?
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Adding to his previous helpful studies on the biblical prophets and their inner-biblical connections, Shepherd here discloses how ancient Jews and Christians interpreted key passages in the Major and Minor Prophets. He highlights the importance of tracing the compositional strategies of the prophetic books themselves and notes how the prophets were not only preachers but also scholars who interpreted texts (see Ezek 38:17; Dan 9:2; Matt 13:52; 1 Pet 1:10–11). This volume is a welcome contribution to the growing number of studies considering early biblical interpretation and inner-biblical exegesis.” –”
How to Read and Understand the Biblical Prophets
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Peter Gentry is a master exegete and theologian, and in this brief volume he supplies excellent guidance for those of us who desire to read and understand the Prophets with greater biblical faithfulness. With clear prose and numerous examples, he identifies how we should approach the prophetic genre––its grounding in the Mosaic covenant, its structure and use of repetition, its engagement of foreign nations, its use of typology and apocalyptic language, and its appropriation and already-but-not-yet fulfillment in the New Testament. Gentry helps us grasp how the prophets communicated their messages, and by doing so he empowers us to become better interpreters of God’s Word. I highly recommend this book.”
Theology
“Exegetically faithful, theologically profound, and grounded in the interpretive patterns of the biblical authors themselves, this rich, rigorous, and robust edition of Kingdom through Covenant clearly and helpfully charts a course between dispensational and covenant theologies. I know of no better study that clarifies how the biblical covenants progress, integrate, and climax in Christ. This volume is a gift to the evangelical church and academy, and I am confident that it will greatly ground and guide the next generation of pastor-theologians.”
Theology
“By nurturing humility and assisting us to tremble at God’s word, John Piper’s Providence helps our eyes to catch the eye of the King in his awesome and terrifying beauty (Isa. 33:17; 66:2). He is not a safe lion, but he is good.”
Return from Exile and the Renewal of God's People
Theology
“Nicholas Piotrowski masterfully shows how the themes of exile and exodus, death and resurrection pervade the Scriptures and develop the biblical storyline climaxing in Christ and his church. Come read of the one whose tribulation and triumph were foreshadowed from the earliest pages of Scripture and whose story culminates in his people’s renewal in the garden-city of God.”
Theology
“Affirming the Pentateuch as Moses’s book and as God’s living word, Vaillancourt shows how the Bible’s initial portrait of redemption foreshadows Christ’s person and saving work. The Dawning of Redemption overviews nine stages in the Bible’s opening story and at every point celebrates Christ as the climax of history, the substance of all shadows, and the bestower of restoration blessings. Vaillancourt rightly recognizes that the Pentateuch is Christian Scripture, and he clearly and faithfully invites new readers into the message of the Bible’s first five books.”
The Serpent and the Serpent Slayer
Theology
“Snakes deceive; dragons devour! But the serpent slayer is greater still! This book traces the hope of the gospel from the garden in Genesis to the new Jerusalem in Revelation. It identifies the deceptive and devouring purposes of the serpent in Scripture’s storyline, but it magnifies how the Old Testament anticipates and the New Testament realizes the victory of Christ for and through his church. This book models well how to trace a biblical-theological theme through the whole of Scripture, and it is infused with hope in the one who triumphs through great tribulation.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Building off the dawn of redemptive hope in Moses' five books, the rest of the Old Testament highlights the development of this future-oriented faith by detailing how God settled, delivered, led, represented, warned, and punished his redeemed. Yet it also clarifies how God extended, preserved, partially restored, and promised to deliver them fully through the long-awaited redeemer. Ian J. Vaillancourt's Unfolding Redemption compellingly overviews this progressing drama of salvation and faithfully shows how it all climaxes in Jesus Christ.”
