These commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible
understand what the text says and what it means. The Introduction
to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its
authorship, date, original setting and purpose. Following a
structural Analysis, the Commentary takes the book section by
section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on
individual verses and problems of interpretation. Additional Notes
provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new
New Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text
is structured under three headings: Context, Comment and Theology.
The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its
message plain.2 CORINTHIANSPaul's long, complicated history with
the Corinthian church culminates in this ardent defence of
Christian ministry in general and of his own ministry in
particular. Colin G. Kruse provides an insightful analysis that
illuminates Paul's contrast of the old and new covenants and his
eloquent exposition of the ministry of reconciliation. He also
charts a clear, plausible course through the maze of the literary
history of Paul's correspondence with the Corinthian Christians.
Based on the latest text of the NIV, this updated commentary
reflects the most current scholarship. This updated and revised
Pillar commentary seeks to clearly explain the meaning of John's
letters to teachers, pastors, and general readers looking for a
reliable and trusted resource for personal study. Colin Kruse
introduces the important issues involved in interpreting the
Johannine letters, gives verse-by-verse comments, and provides
extensive discussion of John's major theological themes, including
the real humanity of Christ, atonement, the role of the Spirit,
Christian assurance, the meaning of koinonia, Christian love, and
eternal life. Designed both for serious students and for general
readers of the Bible, the Pillar New Testament Commentary volumes
seek to make clear the meaning of the text of Scripture as we have
it. The scholars writing these volumes interact with the most
important, informed contemporary debate yet avoid undue technical
detail. Their ideal is a blend of rigorous exegesis and exposition,
scholarship and pastoral sensitivity, with an eye alert both to
biblical theology and to the contemporary relevance of the Bible.
Among the Gospels, John's is unique. It has a structure with long
conversations and extended debates, and much of its content is not
found elsewhere. Jesus' relationship to the Father and his teaching
on the Holy Spirit are given special prominence. Ultimately, faith,
believing in Jesus, is at the centre- with signs highlighted to
provoke faith, and stories of those who responded to Jesus as
examples of faith. Colin Kruse ably shows how the Fourth Gospel
weaves its themes of belief and unbelief into its rich
Christology.The original, unrevised text of this volume has been
completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive

Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible

and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament. The

Among the Gospels, John's is unique. Its structure incorporates

Ultimately, faith, believing in Jesus, is at the centre - with
signs highlighted to provoke faith and stories of those who
responded to Jesus as examples of faith. Colin Kruse shows how the
Fourth Gospel weaves its themes of belief and unbelief into its
rich Christology. This exegetical commentary on the Gospel of John
is part of the Tyndale New Testament Commentaries series designed
to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and
what it means.
Paul's long, complicated history with the Corinthian church
culminates in this ardent defense of Christian ministry in general
and of his own ministry in particular. In this revised edition,
Colin Kruse updates and expands his insightful analysis that
illuminates Paul's contrast of the old and new covenants and his
eloquent exposition of the ministry of reconciliation. He also
charts a clear, plausible course through the maze of the literary
history of Paul's correspondence with the Corinthian Christians.

In keeping with the aims of the Pillar series, Colin Kruse in this
commentary explains Romans to serious pastors, teachers, and
students of the Bible. Kruse -- a well-known evangelical scholar --
solidly bases his exegesis on the Greek text, in conversation with
scholarly literature, both ancient and modern, and with special
attention to the literature of the last thirty years.This
commentary shows how Paul expounds and defends the gospel against
the background of God's sovereign action as creator, judge, and
redeemer of the world. In the process, Kruse elucidates Paul's
teaching about matters of concern in the Roman house churches --
issues that remain important today. Kruse's clarity and economy in
dealing with such complex and important matters, along with the
other features mentioned above, promise to make this commentary an
enduring standard for years to come.
