Black's New Testament Commentary has been hailed by both scholars
and pastors for its insightful interpretations and reliable
commentary. Each book in the series includes an insightful
introduction to the important historical, literary, and theological
issues; key terms and phrases from the translation highlighted in
the commentary where they are discussed; explanations of special
Greek or foreign terms; references to important primary and
secondary literature; and a Scripture index.
C. K. Barrett's exegetical prowess, evidenced most distinctly in
his volumes on the First and Second Epistles to the Corinthians,
also in the Black's series, has long been appreciated in the world
of biblical studies. His verse-by-verse exposition in "The Epistle
to the Romans" further enhances our understanding of the book of
Romans, early Christianity, the apostle Paul and his theology, and
the New Testament. A master of thoroughness, historical
backgrounds, and ancient languages, Barrett offers insights for
scholars, ministers, students, and anyone who wants to know more
about Paul's Epistle to the Romans.
For over one hundred years, the International Critical Commentary
series has held a special place among works on the Bible. It has
sought to bring together all the relevant aids to exegesis --
linguistic and textual no less than archaeological, historical,
literary and theological--with a level of comprehension and quality
of scholarship unmatched by any other series.
No attempt has been made to secure a uniform theological or
critical approach to the biblical text: contributors have been
invited for their scholarly distinction, not for their adherence to
any one school of thought. The first paperback editions to be
published cover the heart of the New Testament, providing a wealth
of information and research in accessible and attractive format.
An abbreviated edition, in paperback, of the two-volume commentary
in the critically-acclaimed International Critical Commentary
series.For those who lack the linguistic and historical grounding,
or the time, to deal with the ICC volumes, this Shorter Commentary
retains all the important elements of the introduction and
commentary, but excludes foreign-language material, technical notes
and excurses.
These seminal essays by two leading New Testament scholars of our
day focus on the interface between Judaism and Christianity in the
New Testament. Professor Hengel writes in a broad and incisive
manner on "Early Christianity as a Jewish-Messianic Universalist
Movement." He argues that Christianity grew entirely out of Jewish
soil and that pagan influences in the New Testament were mediated
through Hellenistic Judaism. With an increasing number of Jewish
scholars, he therefore contends that the New Testament must be
considered an important source for our knowledge of ancient
Judaism. In a final portion of his essay, he comments in some
detail on "the final separation" of Christianity and Judaism.
Professor Barrett's "Paul: Councils and Controversies" addresses a
more specific topic, though one with wide-ranging implications. His
focus is the council described in Galatians 2 and Acts 15. What is
the gospel of Jesus Christ for Jews and what is it for the Gentiles
of the Pauline mission? Barrett explores the historical
circumstances and the theological issues at stake. He traces the
weakness of the initial compromise agreement between Paul and Peter
to take the gospel to the uncircumcision and the circumcision
respectively, as well as the significance of the later compromise
decree of the council that made minimal demands upon the Gentiles.
The inadequacy of both approaches is found in their failure to
refer to the center or core of the gospel, that is, to Jesus
Christ. A brief concluding chapter draws together some of the
essays' themes, by summarizing responses to them by Fuller
Seminary's New Testament department and proposing prospects for
future discussion. An annotated bibliography is also included.

Fuller Theological Seminary.
Second Corinthans is one of the most difficult writings in the New
Testament to interpret. Yet, this commentary, which follows
Barrett's works on Romans and I Corinthians in the same series, is
superb in every respect. The author's command of the Greek
language, his skillful use of the Old Testament and background
writings, and his sensitive handling of complex exegetical problems
provide a panorama of a mature scholar's work which is at times
almost breathtaking. Moreover, the restrained use of Greek and
technical terms makes this commentary as useful for the layman or
pastor as it is for the scholar. -Review and Expositor

summation of a lifetime's work by the pre-eminent New Testament
scholar.
This book contains a number of essays, some hitherto
unpublished, on historical aspects of Paul's work. Sometimes

always illuminates them from new angles, formulating fresh
questions and approaches.
