Eerdmans has recently updated their ‘coming soon‘ section of their website. They have their book releases now from July to October (in the run up to SBL, no doubt!).
Here are some interesting items
Deliverance of God: An Apocalyptic Rereading of Justification in Paul (July) – Douglas Campbell
In this scholarly book Douglas Campbell pushes beyond both [...]
In the last couple of months I have been doing some research in Ephesians. This is an exciting letter to study, not only for its robust theology, but also because of its history of scholarship. There are still so many mysteries (!) in this letter – its purpose, setting, authorship, thesis statement, etc… I am [...]
UPDATE: Beale is leaving for Westminster Theological Seminary. In an interview, he talks about ‘coming home’ theologically when he thinks about his move to WTS. He also feels this is a good time to go to WTS in light of recent events there (which seems to be in relation to Peter Enns). There will, no [...]
In the earlier part, I simply introduced the commentary by Fee. Now I will press on to comment on the content and theological perspective of Fee’s excellent commentary.
On introductory issues, Fee has little to say. He favors the Southern Galatians view just slightly (with the mentioning of Barnabas being the tipping factor). More controversially, Fee [...]
July 2009 – see HERE.
In the new ExT issue, there is an interesting article by David Sim on the history of the interpretation of Matthew’s Gospel. Here is the abstract (the title is: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW):
The Gospel of Matthew, the most influential Gospel in the ancient Christian Church, has [...]
Gordon Fee is not someone that I expect that I need to introduce to most of my readers. His work on the Holy Spirit, textual criticism (and NT exegesis in general), Philippians, 1 Corinthians, the Pastoral Epistles, and ecclesiology is well-known. Most recently, he penned a mammoth volume on Paul’s Christology, a work that will [...]

One of my supervisors, John Barclay, told me that he was going to be teaching a course over the summer at Regent College. I decided to take a peek at what this summer programme was all about. In fact, there are several eminent scholars lined up to teach intensive courses. Check it out HERE.
