The NIV Application Commentary on the Bible enables readers to better
understand not just what the Bible means, but also what it means for
their lives. Clear explanations of every passage in the Bible are
presented alongside insights into contemporary significance.
Written by top-notch evangelical scholars but requiring no formal Bible
or seminary training, The NIV Application Commentary on the Bible is
useful both for personal study and for teaching preparation.
Few ancient Christian authors attempted anything like a complete
commentary on the "Gospel of John", among them Origen, John
Chrysostom and Augustine. Of these, Augustine's must count as the
greatest. Unlike Origen's, it has come down to us in its entirety,
and of the others that remain it is certainly the most
theologically profound. John's gospel allows Augustine to range
broadly over themes that were his life's work - the Trinity, the
person of Christ, the nature of the Church and its sacraments, the
fulfillment of the divine plan. The 124 homilies that constitute
Augustine's commentary, however, are masterpieces not only of
theological profundity but also of pastoral engagement. In the
question-and-answer style that he frequently employs, for example,
one can sense Augustine's real awareness of his congregation's
struggles with the gospel text. And the congregation's response to
Augustine, which he frequently alludes to, is an indication of the
success of his dialogical preaching style. The Johannine literature
drew out the best in Augustine." The Homilies on the "Gospel of
John" are the indispensible complement to "The Homilies on "The
First Epistle of John", recently published in this series, and they
should be a part of any serious theological library.
