Upwardly mobile Christians facing radically diverse ethnic,
religious, economic and social conditions. The church divided over
issues of leadership and authority, sexual morality, gender and
worship, marriage and divorce. Sound familiar? First-century
Corinth and its challenges were not so different from our own. Yet
in the midst of this detailed, practical letter is found one of the
greatest paeans to love ever written. And, of course, love is just
what is needed to address these complex human issues whether in the
first century or the twenty-first. In this deft analysis of 1
Corinthians, readers will find an introduction that discusses the
social, cultural and historical background of the city and its
people. Rounding out the introduction are explorations of the
letter's occasion and date, authorship and purpose, and major
theological themes. Passage-by-passage commentary follows that
seeks to explain what the letter means for us today as well as what
it meant for its original hearers. Students, pastors, Bible
teachers and everyone who wants to understand Paul's message for
the church will benefit from this excellent resource.
