Description
Paul's letter to Philemon carries a strong message of breaking down social barriers and establishing new realities of conduct and fellowship. It is also a disturbing text that has been used to justify slavery. Though brief, Philemon requires close scrutiny. In this commentary Scot McKnight offers careful textual analysis of Philemon and brings the practice of modern slavery into conversation with the ancient text. Too often, McKnight says, studies...

"Therefore, throughout the course of this commentary, we will be looking at how the context of its authors impacted what they wrote, as well as how what they wrote impacted their context. As we will see, this is not a simple task, for the words or 'argument' of Ecclesiastes are hazardous to negotiate. The flow of thought seems to chop and change, staggering between encouragement and despair. But diligence will yield us understanding, showing us how...

Others maintain that Luke's audience was primarily Christian, and the story of Acts offers pastoral encouragement. Still others believe that Acts was written to address theological issues facing the early church. In the end, no single purpose may be able to account...

It's true that God never speaks in Proverbs, but the text is represented as the wisdom of Solomon, which he receives from God in response to his request. We have to come to the book in light of the theology that anchors all its teachings: that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom."--Publisher's website.
