This is a facsimile of the small 1540 book of Myles Coverdale as it was reprinted in modern spelling in 1844. Coverdale was a close associate of William Tyndale, and co-translator of the 1537 Matthew Bible with Tyndale. His English is remarkably modern compared to other writers of his period and readers will be pleased by how easy he is to understand.

Coverdale proceeds chronologically, expounding the sequence of events as set forth in the four Gospels from the Passion of Christ through to Pentecost, in short sections that are perfect for daily devotional reading. They would also serve well for a series of sermons. The first part of each section is a Scripture reading comprised of a passage or combination of passages from the Gospels. The second part expounds the Scriptures.

The "lessons" in Coverdale's book contain the pure preaching of Christ - "gathered," as Coverdale wrote, "out of the four Evangelists, with a plain exposition of the same." Poetic, profound, and anchored to the Word of God as it was most purely revealed in the early Reformation, Coverdale's Fruitful Lessons reach up to heaven itself.

This facsimile book is complete, without any missing pages, and each page has received special attention so that there are no imperfections to detract from the reading experience.

Ephesians presents readers with a volatile mix of assurance, exhilarating worship, and forceful exhortation-a bracing challenge to today's church. The letter convinces Thomas R. Yoder Neufeld that the grace-gift of faithfulness leads to worship. Power, peace, and new creation are gifts of grace equipping the church to participate in God's reconciling embrace.This commentary guides readers to a life-changing encounter with Ephesians, probing interpretations, refreshing Christian teaching, and calling everyone to "walk" accordingly, with a song in heart and throat. 402 Pages.

Eldon Jay Epp's second volume of collected essays consists of articles previously published during 2006-2017. All treat aspects of the New Testament textual criticism, but focus on historical and methodological issues relevant to constructing the earliest attainable text of New Testament writings. More specific emphasis falls upon the nature of textual transmission and the text-critical process, and heavily on the criteria employed in establishing that earliest available text. Moreover, textual grouping is examined at length, and prominent is the current approach to textual variants not approved for the constructed text, for they have stories to tell regarding theological, ethical, and real-life issues as the early Christian churches sought to work out their own status, practices, and destiny.
