The Historical Reliability of John’s Gospel
Throughout much of the twentieth century the Fourth Gospel took a back seat to the Synoptics when it came to historical reliability. Consequently, the contemporary quest of the historical Jesus discounted or excluded evidence from the Fourth Gospel. The question of the historical reliability of John’s Gospel is well overdue for a thorough reinvestigation and reassessment. In this foundational study, Craig L. Blomberg sheds new light on persistent questions. He presents his conclusions largely i...

Temple Theology: An Introduction
How was it that early Christian reflection on Jesus emerged so rapidly and with such a high degree of definition? What patterns of interpretation, already known in late Second Temple Palestine, crystallized around the person of Jesus Christ and his work? What patterns of interpretation, already known in late Second Temple Palestine, crystallized around the person of Jesus Christ and his work?
Paul for Everyone: The Prison Letters (The New Testament for Everyone)
Paul wrote the letters to the Ephesian, Philippian, and Colossian churches and the personal letter to Philemon while in prison facing possible death. However, their passion and energy are undimmed. They reveal Paul’s longing to see young churches grow in faith and understanding, rooted in Jesus himself, and to see this faith worked out in practice—in one case, through the rehabilitation of a runaway slave. In Paul for Everyone: The Prison Letters, Wright’s stimulating comments are combined with his own translation of the Bible text.
The Message of Mission: The Glory of Christ in All Time and Space (The Bible Speaks Today Themes)
The root of the word “mission” means “sending.” All Christian mission has its fountainhead in the God revealed in Scripture, who sent his Son for us, sends his Spirit to us, and summons all people to himself. The privilege and responsibility of his church, sent into all the world, is to testify by his words and deeds to Jesus Christ, God’s unique son, crucified, risen and ascended. The East-West partnership in missiological exploration expounds a variety of Old and New Testament texts, and examines a wide range of issues. The authors’ desire is that Jesus Christ might be glorified more and more in the church and in the world; their eager expectation is that one day the whole creation will find its consummation in him, and God will be all and in all.
Savoring Scripture: A Six-Step Guide to Studying the Bible
Some books on how to read the Bible are academically informative, but their rationality can make God seem distant. Other books are spiritually vibrant but provide few tools that truly help God’s people read the Bible better. Readers need a guide that combines the academic with the spiritual—that integrates textual analysis with the illuminating and transformational work of the Holy Spirit.
The Acts of the Risen Lord Jesus: Luke’s Account of God’s Unfolding Plan (New Studies in Biblical Theology | NSBT)
When the book of Acts is mentioned, a cluster of issues spring to mind, including speaking in tongues and baptism with the Holy Spirit, church government and practice, and missionary methods and strategies. At the popular level, Acts is more often mined for answers to contemporary debates than heard for its natural inflections. Alan Thompson argues that Acts is an account of the “continuing story” of God's saving purposes. Instead of using Acts as a proof-text, he brings a biblical-theological framework to the account to expose Luke’s major themes as they relate to the book as a whole. Consequently, we find that Luke wants to be read in light of the Old Testament promises and the continuing reign of Christ in the inaugurated kingdom. Read in this way as a snapshot of God’s dynamic, unfolding kingdom, the book of Acts begins to regain the deep relevance it had in the first century.
Romans (Tyndale New Testament Commentaries | TNTC)
Romans has been described as the theological epistle par excellence—the apostle Paul emphasizes that salvation is by God’s grace alone, and gives the assurance that freedom, hope, and the gift of righteousness are secured through Christ’s death on the cross, with the promise of a new and glorious destiny. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, believers can discern and do the will of God in everyday life. God’s purpose is to bring Jews and Gentiles together so that they may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ with one voice. David Garland offers clear guidance along the rewarding, though sometimes difficult, paths of this great letter.
A Handbook on the Book of Job (UBS Handbook Series)
The Book of Job is a story told in the form of a poem. It begins with a prose introduction describing Job as a good man who is faithful to God, wealthy, and concerned for the right relation between God and his family. In a meeting between God and Satan, God permits Satan to test Job’s loyalty. These tests result in the destruction of Job’s family and wealth. He is reduced to sitting in agony on a pile of ashes, where three friends find him when they arrive to bring him comfort. In his despair Job regrets that he was born and curses his origins. The friends enter into three rounds of lengthy arguments with Job, in which they maintain that Job’s suffering is the result of his sin. Job argues against them, insisting stubbornly that he is innocent, and demands that God appear in court with him. These speeches make up the main body of the poem. After the three rounds of speech arguments, there is a poem on wisdom, and then Job gives his final speech, in which he recalls his former...
Ezra-Nehemiah (Smyth & Helwys Bible Commentary | SHBC)
Ezra-Nehemiah describes events that occurred between 539 and 432 BCE, but the books themselves were written between 432 and 200 BCE. Though these books describe early events and perhaps incorporates authentic memoirs of Nehemiah, they also contain redacted lists, narratives, and thinking about that crucial century in the life of post-exilic Judah and its neighbors. In addition, these accounts record both the successes and the excesses of three waves of returnees. The task of rebuilding and deali...
