Book excerpt: The famous Pelican takes on a new look in this important series of commentaries on the New Testament. Originally published by Penguin Books, it has now been taken over by SCM Press who will continue it and develop it further. The commentaries on the four gospels in paperback will continue to be published by Penguin Books; cased editions of these books and editions of all other commentaries, both cased and paperback, will in future be published by SCM Press.

Paul's Letters from Prison covers the 'captivity epistles' which, though of uncertain authorship, are commonly attributed to the apostle Paul: Philippians, Colossians, Philemon and Ephesians.

Download or read book Paul s Letters from Prison written by and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1976 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The letters Paul wrote to the Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon, have one feature in common that distinguishes them from the other letters he wrote: in them, Paul calls himself a prisoner. This thought-provoking study examines closely the metaphorical and literal meaning of Paul's "bonds and chains". Through analysis of the letters themselves, Caird considers whether Paul was actually behind bars when he wrote them (and if so, in which prison or prisons), whether he may have been referring to himself figuratively as a "prisoner of Jesus Christ," and whether he was the actual author of all four letters. In assessing these issues, Caird outlines each letter's intended audience, vocabulary, style, historical setting, literary references, and theology.

Download or read book The Letters to Philemon the Colossians and the Ephesians written by Ben Witherington and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11-19 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume completes Ben Witherington's contributions to the set of Eerdmans socio-rhetorical commentaries on the New Testament. In addition to the usual features of these commentaries, Witherington offers an innovative way of looking at Colossians, Ephesians, and Philemon as interrelated documents written at different levels of moral discourse. Colossians is first-order moral discourse (the opening gambit), Ephesians is second-order moral discourse (what one says after the opening salvo to the same audience), and Philemon is third-order moral discourse (what one says to a personal friend or intimate). Witherington successfully analyzes these documents as examples of Asiatic rhetoric, explaining the differences in style from earlier Pauline documents. He further shows that Paul is deliberately engaging in the transformation of existing social institutions. As always, Witherington's work is scholarly and engaging. With detailed "Closer Look" sections, The Letters to Philemon, the Colossians, and the Ephesians is perfect for the libraries of clergy, biblical scholars, and seminaries.
