Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In most generations there are those rare scholars willing to go back to fundamentals, to rethink and reorganize what other scholars have come to take for granted or have not bothered to think through. Our scholarly generation owes Douglas Campbell hearty thanks for this book which, among other things, does the hard work of clarifying the chronology and historical context of Paul's letters. Campbell's transparent and rigorous thought is seen here at its best. All historical-critical interpreters of Paul's letters will need this book; any serious reader of Paul will benefit from it.”
History & Biography
“At once candid and consoling; memories of a particular love and loss which will bring tears of recognition to others who have loved and grieved. Chris Seitz’s honesty and ability to describe so exquisitely the joy of life with Elizabeth—and then its loss—is a testament to the truth that grief is indeed unspent love, and that great love has no conclusion. Seitz describes his particular experience while at the same time drawing us deeper into the Love who every grief has known.”
Theology
“An erudite and energetic reframing of Paul’s understanding of human identity and personhood. Eastman’s penetrating and expansive interpretation is a bold, insightful, and important addition to biblical study.”
