The History and Theology of the New Testament Writings

3 reviews
Udo Schnelle

SCM Press, 1998

Probably the best introduction to the NT
This work is not a popular book addressed to the masses who can't read a Greek work or are not interested in academic books. It has no general introduction to the NT background, literary criticism, etc. (German theology students normally first study, besides languages, some books on the NT background and also some on exegesis such as the classic Conzelamnn and Lindemann's Arbeitsbuch zum ...

Mark (Ntl): A Commentary (New Testament Library) (New Testament Library)

2 reviews
M. eugene Boring

Westminster John Knox Press, 2006

Very Useful
Boring's recent Mark commentary is a pleasure. One of those rare technical works that's irresistible to read cover to cover. I found his less technical Matthew and Revelation like that, too; I couldn't put them down and read every page--plus go back to them frequently. I purchased this book to understand more about Mark but also to increase my overall learning. It's fulfilled that expectation ...

One Handy New Testament Reference
Here is a one-volume commentary on the New Testament with up to date information that is also very much in line with what contemporary Christians believe. I am tempted to say, "This is the commentary for you." Because I firmly believe that every household should have one handy reference work that helps them understand Scripture, and you would find this book to be exactly that. Yes, I know ...

Disciples and the Bible: A History of Disciples Biblical Interpretation in North America

2 reviews
M. eugene Boring

Chalice Press, 1997

A service to the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement!
Boring is doing the Stone-Campbell tradition a favor with his book. He tackles the difficult job of tracing 200 years (1804 to date) of biblical interpretation in North America by dividing them into five "generations." His definitions of "generation" are logical and help the reader to understand the evolution of biblical interpretation by Disciple leaders down through the years. For each ...

This book, the product of collaboration between German and American New Testament scholarship, is the most complete collection of Hellenistic texts correlated to the New Testament available in English.

Revelation (Interpretation, a Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching)

4 reviews
Eugene M. Boring

Westminster John Knox Press, 1989

the best
I have used this book along with Wilfrid Harrington's commentary (in the Sacra Pagina series). For me Boring's treatment is the one that has been most helpful. Boring gives sober and insightful perspectives on what to make of Revelation. He makes many useful connections to parallels in the other Biblical books, and occasionally points out relevant examples from other similar texts (Daniel, ...

1 Peter (Abingdon New Testament Commentaries)

M. eugene Boring

Abingdon Press, 1999

Excellent Resource
I used this book as a supplement to the information in Raymond Brown's NT Introduction to complete a class presentation on 1 Peter. I fully intended to skim for what I needed; in the end I read the entire book. The language is extremely accessible to every level of readership: there is something for scholars and casual readers as well. The Abingdon series takes a highly ecumenical approach, ...
