2 Peter and Jude

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“The New Testament writers were utterly transfixed by the transformational impact of Christ on their world. Here at last is a commentary series that takes this historical fact seriously. Ruth Anne Reese leads us on a stimulating journey through the text to a rich theological reflection and on to consider what the lordship of Jesus means for our own times. Highly commended.”

A New Testament Biblical Theology

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Biblical scholars and theologians, after long separation and now perhaps with a healthier sense of their own historical location, have recently found themselves engaged on a common project: what is it that binds the church’s canonical texts together? Reflecting its author's situatedness within the evangelical Reformed tradition and firm commitment to exegetical integrity and the priority of the biblical storyline, Greg Beale’s extensive and detailed new book is a most welcome addition to the ongoing discussion.”

Children of Laughter and the Re-Creation of Humanity

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In a genuinely insightful and fresh reading of Paul’s ‘infamous’ Hagar and Sarah ‘allegory,’ Tedder’s location of Paul’s hermeneutical emphases is very much in the right place. Essential reading for anyone interested in the way Scripture shaped Paul’s understanding of what God did in Christ.”

In the Name of Jesus

Theology

“For over two decades Graham Twelftree has closely studied the question of exorcism. This stimulating and graciously provocative work is essential reading for anyone working in the field.”

The Missing Gospels

Apologetics

“Every generation has its hawkers of wondrous new discoveries that amazingly everyone else has missed, but which, thanks to a few enlightened individuals, will dramatically rewrite history. But the vast majority of these headline-grabbing fancies evaporate under more sober scrutiny. Darrell Bock’s careful book shows why recent sensationalist claims based on the Gnostic gospels are no different.”

Unlocking Romans

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In a bold and stimulating thesis Kirk shows how Jesus' resurrection, so central to Paul's conversion, lies at the heart of Romans. Since through it God has justified both himself and his faithful Christ, thereby showing Jesus to be the goal of the law, then participation in that salvation comes, for Jew and Gentile alike, not through the law but solely through faith in the resurrected Son of God. Highly commended.”

Useless Beauty

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This book is a well-informed and sensitive example of how, in our uncertain and contradictory times, to engage film and Scripture without denying the integrity of either. It is highly recommended.”
