Showing titles in New Testament

There is treasure hidden in Paul’s thirteen letters, but the path to find it is not obvious. Here is a tip: in the Bible, Paul’s letters are not sequenced in chronological order. The Bible rarely gives us specific dates about events it addresses, which can be frustrating for modern audiences.  

Detta är en av de mest klassiska och poetiska beskrivningarna av Jesus liv och gärning. Det är en förvånansvärt avskalad bild som evangelisten Johannes ger av Jesus, som i texten rör sig genom olika sociala skikt i samhället, där han sprider välvilja, tro och missionerar sin roll som Messias, Guds son. Här får vi höra Jesus egna ord forma sig, som vore de nedtecknade som ett direkt vittnesmål. Det är lyriska, ofta paradoxalt vackra monologer som tecknar ett porträtt av en man som brinner för människans rätt till ett drägligt liv.

Händelserna som tilldrar sig i Markusevangeliet tar sin början efter Jesus möte med Johannes döparen. Det blir ett omvälvande möte som för in Jesus på den väg som kommer att göra honom till en av världens mest mytomspunna och viktiga gestalter. För att sprida sin lära samlar Jesus ihop lärljungar ur olika skikt i samhället och ger sig ut på en profetisk resa. Men det blir snart tydligt att makten inte ser blitt på hans försök att sprida kristendomens lära. Jesus blir snart fängslad och torterad till döds. Men berättelsen tar inte slut där.

Jesus är idag en av världens mest kända historiska personer. Guds son, men också en social kämpe som spred en lära om kärlek, jämlikhet och tolerans bland Jerusalems fattiga och förtryckta. Lukasevangeliet är en av Bibelns viktigaste texter och tecknar Jesus livshistoria från födseln till hans gärning som missionerande läromästare och till hans brutala död i fångenskap. Det är en text som utmärker sig för sina detaljrika framställningar av dåtidens medicinska vetande, en aspekt som tillskrivs Lukas yrke som läkare.

Through Old Testament Eyes is a new kind of commentary series that illuminates the Old Testament backgrounds, allusions, patterns, and references saturating the New Testament. Bible teachers, preachers, and students committed to understanding Scripture will gain insight through these rich Old Testament connections, which clarify puzzling passages and explain others in fresh ways. Avoiding overly technical discussions and interpretive debates, Tremper Longman combines rigorous, focused New Testament scholarship with deep respect for the entire biblical text. 

The question of the historicity of Jesus' resurrection has been repeatedly probed, investigated, and debated. And the results have varied widely. Perhaps some now regard this issue as the burned-over district of New Testament scholarship. Could there be any new and promising approach to this problem? Yes, answers Michael Licona. And he convincingly points us to a significant deficiency in approaching this question: our historiographical orientation and practice.

When God-in-the-flesh showed up twenty centuries ago in Palestine, the religious PhDs rejected him and the prostitutes and social outcasts flocked to him. Why? . .

The Old Testament is a collection of thirty-nine books about the history and religion of the people of Israel. The authors of these books are unknown, and each book possesses a unique tone, style, and message. Individually, they include stories, laws, and sayings that are intended to function as models of religious and ethical conduct. Together – through hundreds of characters and detailed events – they represent a unified narrative about God and his attempt to relate to humankind by relating to a specific group of people.

Over 12 chapters, Blessed covers the full text of the book of Revelation, exploring its call to patient endurance as God's sovereign plans for judgment and salvation are worked out in the world. In this book, best-selling author and speaker Nancy Guthrie shows how Revelation is less about when Jesus will return and more about who we are to be, what we are to do, and what we can expect to endure as we wait for Jesus to return to establish his kingdom in the new creation.

Christians know the importance of prayer, but the act of praying can be a real challenge. Some have the desire, but not always the will; others worry they don't do it well. Books about prayer usually emphasize spiritual discipline, but that can foster more guilt than reassurance. So how can Christians improve their prayer life, embracing the privilege of communicating with God? In The Lord's Prayer, Kevin DeYoung closely examines Christ's model for prayer, giving listeners a deeper understanding of its content and meaning, and how it works in the lives of God's people.

The earliest traditions around the narrative of Jesus' resurrection are considered in this landmark work by Dale C. Allison, Jr, drawing together the fruits of his decades of research into this issue at the very core of Christian identity. Allison returns to the ancient sources and earliest traditions, charting them alongside the development of faith in the resurrection in the early church and throughout Christian history. 

The crucifixion and resurrection of Christ are central events in our salvation. Yet few Christians have a good grasp of the first-century historical and religious context in which the crucifixion took place, nor of its true significance for the people of that time - and hence for our time as well. Biblical scholar and attorney Dr. Jeannie Constantinou puts modern listeners in the center of the events of Christ's Passion, bringing the best of modern scholarship to bear while keeping her interpretation faithful in every particular to the Orthodox tradition.

Volume two, The Reign of Grace, focuses on the sovereignty, grace, and holiness of God and on the need for holiness in believers. James Montgomery Boice discusses the full meaning of salvation, the problem with suffering, the struggles of sin, and the sustaining love God pours on his people.  

Romans: An Expositional Commentary, Vol. 1 discusses the full impact of justification by faith alone. Boice uses stories and hymns to present the thoughts of Paul in a poetic form and provides word studies based on the Greek text to add meaning and enrichment to Paul’s words.
