The letters to the Thessalonians are a hidden gem of the New
Testament. Paul's letters to the church in Thessalonica are often
considered two of the less important of his letters, but they were
written to an important city and a church facing important issues.
In addition to addressing the issue of Christ's return and the
problem of people who refused to work, these letters model a truly
loving relationship between a pastor and a congregation. In 1 &
2 Thessalonians Verse by Verse, respected New Testament scholar
Grant R. Osborne shows readers that in a culture demanding that
everyone participate in the worship of the Roman Empire's gods, the
Thessalonians desperately needed resources that would help them
withstand the pressure to conform. These letters provide us with a
thrilling example of affection among believers in extremely hard
times and help us see how that affection can make severe trials
bearable. The Osborne New Testament Commentaries, by respected
professor and author Grant R. Osborne, are for people seeking a
straightforward explanation of the text in its context, avoiding
either oversimplification or technical complexity. Osborne brings
out the riches of the New Testament, making each book accessible
for pastors and all who consider themselves students of Scripture.
