Moore J. Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

Exhibiting the same brilliant exegesis and sound practical insight found in his previous works, noted commentator Douglas J. Moo in this new volume not only explains accurately the meaning of the letters to the Colossians and to Philemon but also applies that meaning powerfully to twenty-first-century readers. Moo both interacts with the Greek text of these letters and clearly explains the English text to a contemporary audience. Informed, evangelical, methodologically astute, and displaying a careful balance between good scholarship and pastoral concern -- earmarks of the Pillar New Testament Commentary series as a whole -- Moo's Letters to the Colossians and to Philemon will offer insights to a wide range of readers, from teachers and students, to pastors and parishioners, to scholars and laypersons. - Publisher.

In deze fascinerende opvolger van Het graalcomplot, waarvan wij in korte tijd maar liefst 25.000 exemplaren verkochten, is sterreporter Cotten Stone op het toppunt van haar roem, als het noodlot toeslaat en zij haar toppositie als correspondent voor NBC onmiddellijk moet opgeven. En ook haar zelfvertrouwen raakt Cotten hierdoor volledig kwijt… Maar een jaar later doet ze een opzienbarende ontdekking: in Zuid-Amerika graaft zij een eeuwenoud voorwerp van kristal op, waarop in geheimzinnig schrift de Zondvloed wordt voorspeld, en ook nog een andere ramp die de mensheid zal overkomen. En de enige die deze ramp zal kunnen voorkomen, is de dochter van een engel…

Few New Testament books have been as controversial and misunderstood as The Letter of James. Its place in the canon was contested by some early Christians, and the reformer Martin Luther called it an "epistle of straw". The sometimes negative view of the letter among modern theologians, however, is not shared by ordinary believers. Few books in the New Testament are better known or more often quoted, and because James is so concise, so intensely practical, and so filled with memorable metaphors and illustrations, it has become one of the two or three most popular New Testament books in the church. The highly original commentary on James by respected New Testament scholar Douglas Moo combines penetrating scholarship with the simplicity of style and pastoral tone characteristic of James itself. After discussing such background issues as authorship, genre, purpose, structure, and theology, Moo provides a verse-by-verse exposition of the text that leads readers to the heart of James's message - wholehearted commitment to Christ. In addition to expounding the meaning of James, Moo also takes care to provide practical insights for applying the meaning in the church today. A number of years in the making, interacting with the best and most recent works on James, and written for readers at all levels, this volume will quickly become a standard commentary on James.
