- Summary
- "Books and Commentaries on the writings of the New Testament abound. But where can a student find a short, up-to-date volume, concise yet comprehensive, on the New Testament text he or she is studying? More important, where can a student find such a volume at an affordable price? New Testament Guides have been designed to meet these and other student needs: introduction to the contents of the particular biblical book; balanced survey of the important critical issues; attention to literary, historical, sociological and theological perspectives; suggestions about critical appropriation of the text by the contemporary reader; and reference to other standard works through annotated bibliographies."--Jacket
