Robert Horton Gundry

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2001

Provocative, must-read for all evangelicals

+ toward an exegetical ecclesiology
+ Provocative, yes, but the sectarian solution is misguided.

I give this book five stars, not because I agree with everything Gundry says but because it is a message that we need to hear. Not since David F. Wells's No Place for Truth and companion volumes and D. A. Carson's Gagging of God has such a first-rate evangelical scholar provided such poignant and ...

Bart D. Ehrman

Oxford University Press, USA, 1996

Just give me the facts please.

+ Raw research for experts on the shaping of scripture

Looking at bilblical history somewhat forensically is a refreshing way to examine the Bible. Cultural, social, and political, in other words, human perspective lead to an evolving understanding of religion, in general, not just Christianity.

This is a very difficult accomplishment where many other authors failed before. I really appreciated his exposition, and actually learned ...

Finally...

+ This is a great reference book on Tabernacle teaching!

I finally read this book, after reading his other 2 books on the Tabernacle of David and the Temple of Solomon. I actually read this book amazingly fast, considering how detailed it is. It also probably seemed fast, because it had less pages than the other 2 books, particularly the Temple of ...
