An Introduction to the Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This clear and accessible introduction will be of great help to those learning about textual criticism for the first time, and especially to those wanting to make the most of the special features of The Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge.”
Conformed to the Image of His Son
Theology
“Haley Jacob has taken a text that everyone thought they understood (in one way or another) and has given it the treatment that it deserves. With her help we can see much more clearly how Romans 8:28-29 relates to Paul's larger argument in Romans (and elsewhere). And the result is revolutionary! The destiny Paul has in mind is not merely that of finding ourselves in a luminous splendor, but of the privilege of participating in and extending Christ's rule over all of creation. Jacob's argument should reshape the conversation about the goal of salvation as Paul understood it, and it has the power to reshape the way Christians live out their understanding of salvation in practical ways. Here we find a model of careful scholarship carried out in the service of the church.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This relatively concise and accessible commentary helpfully situates Paul's letter in its first-century context through its valuable discussions of key background issues and its generous use of sidebars with quotations of relevant material from ancient sources. Pastors and students will benefit from the contextual focus as well as from Perkins's informed approach to theological interpretation, even if they reach some different conclusions along the way.”
Five Things Biblical Scholars Wish Theologians Knew
Theology
“We modern biblical scholars and theologians tend to work away in our separate silos, wishing 'the other team' respected and employed our work as much as we think they should. There are a few important projects that bring some of us together from time to time, but the kind of honest conversation promoted here is generally hard to find. Scot McKnight doesn't presume to provide us with the last word or even the penultimate word for the dialogue. But this is a very important contribution toward generating the ongoing conversation that will benefit not only biblical scholars and theologians but, most importantly, the church and its mission.”
Gender Roles and the People of God
Women
“While many books have simply focused on key biblical texts, Gender Roles and the People of God also explores other issues that add to the complexity of the subject, including modern cultural and theological developments that shape the way people read ancient texts and think about God and gender. This book is certain to help many Christians wrestling with gender issues.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Noel Forlini Burt takes us on a spiritually rich journey informed by her expertise in both the Old Testament and spiritual formation. She has drunk deeply from the Scriptures themselves as well as from the insights of the desert fathers and mothers and others who have written profoundly about wilderness experiences and their important role in our spiritual formation. Her discussion of attachment theory and our need for attachment to God enriches the rest. This biblically and spiritually rich book is a must-read for all who walk in the desert or are called to minister to those in the wilderness.”
Theology
“An important examination of a crucial theme for understanding some of the New Testament's use of the Old Testament, carried out by two scholars who have thought long and hard on the issue.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This intermediate-level introduction to New Testament syntax is up to date on the most recent research and developments in the study of Greek and presents cutting-edge information with a rare combination of clarity and insight, reinforced by a number of clear examples from the New Testament. Mathewson and Emig are wise, experienced, and gifted teachers and have given students exactly what they need to build on a study of basic Greek. This book should be on the shelf of every student who is eager to grow in understanding the New Testament in Greek.”
Metánoia (Repentance): A Major Theme of the Gospel of Matthew
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“ChoongJae Lee does the important work of showing how the theme of repentance is reflected throughout the Gospel of Matthew and establishes its thematic and paradigmatic significance for that Gospel. In my opinion this provides an important key to the way the Gospel was intended to be read and I am happy to see the publication of this valuable work.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Moyise combines his thorough knowledge of the field with his skills as a communicator to provide an eminently accessible and thoroughly up-to-date discussion of Paul's quotations from the Scriptures of Israel and of the scholarly debates surrounding them. It will be one of the first books I will want my students to read on the subject.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Andrew C. Burrow provides a much-needed critique of the standard treatments of the relationship between Paul’s interpretive practices and those of (other) allegorical interpreters. He also shows that the criteria typically used for identifying comparable allegorical interpreters and interpretations need to be reconsidered. His work should be of great interest to all those interested in a better understanding of Paul as an interpreter of Scripture.”
Paul's Message and Ministry in Covenant Perspective
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“What an important contribution Scott Hafemann has made through these penetrating essays, working together to demonstrate the cross-centered nature of Paul's life and proclamation of the gospel, demonstrating in concrete terms the power of God reflected in the weakness of the cross and in ministry marked by such 'foolishness' and 'weakness.' By making these essays more accessible to a wider readership this volume makes its own contribution to understanding this crucial aspect of Paul's message and ministry.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Son's thorough analysis of intertextual relationships between Exodus 15 and Revelation 15 will be of interest to all who recognize the importance of Old Testament backgrounds for interpreting New Testament texts in general, and for interpreting the book of Revelation in particular.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Matthew Harmon has produced a wonderful overview of a biblical theology of sin and restoration. This theological gem is full of insights that will be appreciated by a wide range of readers. Pastors, teachers, and students seeking to strengthen their grasp of biblical theology will be richly rewarded by their careful reading of this theologically astute and spiritually edifying exposition of these themes!”
Sex Difference in Christian Theology
Theology
“Megan DeFranza has done the church a tremendous service in producing this fine contribution on an important but neglected aspect of theological anthropology.”
Christian Living
“Brian Rosner has been studying, teaching, and meditating on Paul’s incredibly rich and powerful letter to the Romans for many years. He is both an extraordinarily gifted exegete and an incredibly insightful theologian with a special expertise in biblical theology. All of that is on full display in this masterful exposition of the theology of Paul’s letter to the Romans. All who read it will not only grow to a deeper understanding of Romans and its theology but will also be spiritually edified and enriched in the process. Rosner sets the table so that we can all more fully enjoy the theological feast of Paul’s letter to the Romans.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Through this incomparably thorough exegesis of 1 Corinthians 15, James Ware provides scholars, teachers, and preachers with a remarkably detailed treatment of the climax of Paul’s letter. Ware is fully abreast of recent scholarship on the letter as well as the history of its interpretation. His work is brimming with insights based on subtleties of the Greek language and incisive assessment of the exegetical arguments of those who have gone before him. Anyone wrestling with this historically and theologically important chapter of Paul’s letter will need to carefully consider the results of his painstaking work.”
The Greek New Testament Study Bible
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This Greek New Testament Study Bible is an extraordinary achievement that will be of tremendous help to students, pastors and all who have at least a year of Greek under their belt. Constantine Campbell and he international team of scholars are to be commended for producing an aid that will undoubtedly result not only in seeing many more people continue to read their Greek New Testament on a regular basis but also in seeing them grow in their understanding of the Greek language and most importantly, of the Scriptures and of the God revealed within them.”
The New Covenant as a Paradigm for Optimal Relations
Marriage, Family & Relationships
“A highly respected and experienced expert in the field of clinical psychology, Pablo Polischuk has taken the time to engage serious academic work on covenants in biblical theology and has been perfecting his integrated approach in the seminary classroom for years. The rich insights found here will be of great help to the serious student committed to enriching their own relationships as well as those of the people to whom they minister.”
The Spirit, Ethics, and Eternal Life
Christian Living
“In The Spirit, Ethics, and Eternal Life, Jarvis Williams provides us with a carefully researched investigation of a crucially important set of related themes in Paul's letter to the Galatians. Painstaking scholarship is applied to topics of incredible relevance for Christian theology and living in this and any age: the intersecting themes of God's Spirit, eternal life, and Christian ethics. This book will help many gain a much better grasp of Paul's life-transforming theology and ethics, for the good of the church!”
