This careful, sometimes innovative, mid-level commentary touches on an astonishingly wide swath of important, sensitive issues - theological and pastoral - that have urgent resonances in twenty-first-century life. This thorough commentary presents a coherent reading of 1 Corinthians, taking full account of its Old Testament and Jewish roots and demonstrating Paula's primary concern for the unity and purity of the church and the glory of God. Those who preach and teach 1 Corinthians will be grateful to Ciampa and Rosner for years to come and scholars will be challenged to see this letter with fresh eyes.

This second edition of An Introduction to the New Testament provides readers with pertinent material and a helpful framework that will guide them in their understanding of the New Testament texts. Many new and diverse cultural, historical, social-scientific, sociorhetorical, narrative, textual, and contextual studies have been examined since the publication of the first edition, which was in print for twenty years. The authors retain the original tripartite arrangement on 1) The world of the New Testament, 2) Interpreting the New Testament, and 3) Jesus and early Christianity. An appropriate book for anyone who seeks to better understand what is involved in the exegesis of New Testaments texts today.

Professor Hering was Professor Emeritus of the University of Strasbourg, where for many years had been a famous Protestant New Testament scholar. His wide philosophical interests include ethics and phenomenology, and he was well known as a contributor to the Revue d'historie et de philosophie religieuse. His commentary on La second epitre de saint Paul aux Corinthiens appeared in 1958, and in 1959 the new edition of his Le royaume de Dieu et sa venue. But this work is the first to be translated into English, and a lifetime of New Testament study lies behind it. At Professor Hering's request a new English translation of the text of the Epistle has been prepared, which embodies the conclusions reached in the critical notes of the commentary. The body of the commentary is intelligible to the general reader, and the footnotes, in which much rich scholarship is garnered, are richly rewarding to the scholar and student. Knowledge of Greek is not essential; Greek words are transliterated into English letters, and generally are at once translated.

The Bible studies I chose to do came about in answer to the request from my first congregation out of seminary. I consistently sought to present a serious, somewhat scholarly approach to the interest among my parishioners. I would take a book in the Bible to study, assume it was written or edited to be read from the beginning, and make sense to the reader in that format. I attempted to discover for myself and my group what the book sought to convey. In this volume, the study of 1 Corinthians (198283) followed that pattern exactly.
