"Fee's book is the most comprehensive treatment available of Paul's
understanding of the Holy Spirit, a topic that has rarely received
sufficient attention in studies of Pauline theology. Fee's method
is exemplary: he first analyzes Paul's statements about the Spirit,
in each individual letter, and then moves to a synthesis of Paul's
general pneumatology. The result is a book that is deeply
exegetical, doing justice both to the particularity of Paul's
writings and to the fundamental unity of his vision for the
Spirit's role in the life of the Christian community. Most
importantly, Fee emphasizes insistently that the Holy Spirit must
be experienced as a living presence within the church. That message
is both faithful to Paul and urgent for the community of faith in
our time."--Richard B. Hays, professor of New Testament, Duke
University Divinity School
"With the energy and care that is a trademark of his work, Gordon
Fee here fills a significant gap in Pauline studies. Both those who
find talk about the Holy Spirit congenial and those who would
happily marginalize it will be instructed by this book. Fee makes a
genuine contribution as he examines Paul's letters in conversation
with both the exegetical tradition of the academy and the pressing
needs of the church."--Beverly R. Gaventa, professor of New
Testament and exegesis, Princeton Theological Seminary
"Fee uniquely combines professional competence as a text critic, an
exegete, an author and editor of major commentaries, and a foremost
evangelical interpreter of Paul with a lifetime of formation and
ministry among the Pentecostals--this century's providential
witnesses to the work of the Spirit of God among us. . . . Fee's
work offers an enduring encyclopedia of Pauline pneumatological
exegesis, easy to consult for next Sunday's sermon, yet substantial
enough to take its place near George Ladd's "Theology of the New
Testament "as a must-have, within arm's reach, for serious
interpreters of Paul's gospel. . . . Fee's work is the theological
crown of a distinguished exegetical career."--Russell P. Spittler,
senior professor of New Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary
