Preaching pastors, ministers, and priests know how quickly Sundays
come and go. "The Lectionary Commentary" will not slow the pace of
the weekly calendar, but it will help assure that sermon
preparation begins with a solid engagement with Scripture. Designed
to "jump start" the difficult task of sermon preparation, this
indispensable three-volume work gathers exegetical essays on
biblical texts from the Revised Common Lectionary. Covering every
Sunday of the three-year liturgical cycle, as well as Christmas
Day, Epiphany, and Ascension Day, the readings are arranged in
canonical order so as to be of use to all preachers.
Seventy-eight pastors, priests, and teachers from a variety of
Christian traditions have contributed their insights to "The
Lectionary Commentary." Designed to answer the question "What does
the preacher need to know about this text in order to preach a
faithful sermon from it?," each of their essays closely considers
its specific biblical text, all the while remaining alert to the
contemporary context in which the sermon will be spoken and heard.
The result is an invaluable resource that will aid in the difficult
task of facilitating a meaningful encounter between Holy Scripture
and our modern world.
This volume, "The Third Readings: The Gospels," provides
exegetical commentary on the lectionary readings for the witnesses
to Jesus Christ written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Also
unique to this volume is an excellent essay by C. Clifton Black on
Augustinian preaching and the nurture of Christians.
