Luke among the Ancient Historians

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Peters has written a fresh and stimulating portrayal of Lukan historiography. . . . Peters argues his position with methodological clarity and rigor, and this is why this book makes a significant contribution to the quest for the sources, methods, and purposes of Luke-Acts, which deserves a broad and thorough discussion.”

The Gospel According to Paul

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Graham Twelftree has written what has been needed for a long time: a comprehensive and thorough study of the Apostle Paul’s ‘gospel’ language against its Jewish and Greco-Roman background. This concise and well-written study provides access to the center of Paul’s thinking. It can be considered as a book that combines exegetical diligence and theological commitment in the best sense. It is to be wished that it will find many readers.”

The Holy Spirit and Ethics in Paul

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Readers of Paul seeking to understand how the Spirit transforms believers will find here important new resources for thought. Rabens makes a significant contribution to a hot debate, tracing Paul's understanding of the relational self. This is a fine book, well worthy of this second edition." —John Barclay Durham University "Volker Rabens has provided us with a theologically reflective and exegetically thoughtful study, which reaches a well-founded overall result. His exegetical explorations of the Pauline texts show a large familiarity with Pauline Theology as well as with its religio-historical context and with contemporary research on Paul. The interplay of theological awareness and careful exegeses makes this book a landmark contribution to research in Pauline pneumatology and ethics.”
