1 Peter

Informationen zum Autor Joel B Green is professor of New Testament interpretation and dean of School of Theology at Ashbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore! Kentucky. Klappentext Even though the letter of 1áPeter has sometimes been overshadowed by Paul's many New Testament letters, it is nonetheless distinctive for the clarity with which it presents the Christian message. In this volume Joel Green offers a clear paragraph-by-paragraph analysis of 1áPeter and, even more, unpacks the letter's theology in ways that go beyond the typical modern commentary.Following Green's paragraph-by-paragraph commentary is an extended discussion of the "theological horizons" of 1 Peter. Throughout his study Green brings the message of 1 Peter into conversation with Christian theologians -- ancient and contemporary -- so that the challenge of this letter for Christian faithfulness can be heard more clearly today.
