Product Details
- Colossians, one of the shortest of Paul's letters, is also one of the most exciting. Writing to a young church discovering what it was like to believe in Jesus Christ and to follow him, Paul shares their sense of wonder as he encourages them to explore the treasures of the gospel and to order their lives accordingly. So starts N. T. Wright in his enlightening commentary on Paul's letter to the Colossians.Similarly, Paul's letter to Philemon is another treatise on living life according to Christ. Of this epistle, Wright states, The reconciliation of Philemon and Onesimus becomes an acted parable of the gospel itself, which breaks into the world of sin, suspicion and anger, of pride and fear, with the good news that Jesus Christ has revealed God's purposes of salvation, of human wholeness, of loving and forgiving fellowship.The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable, and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament.These Tyndale volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The introduction to each volumegives a concise but thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the biblical book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also comments on individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation. The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.

Paul's Letters Editorial Review
**** The commentary "Colossians and Philemon: An Introduction and Commentary (Volume 12)" by N.T. Wright emerges as a highly regarded resource within the Tyndale New Testament Commentaries series, particularly noted for its concise yet profound exploration of the biblical texts. Measuring just 167 pages, this volume stands out for its accessibility, making it an ideal companion for busy pastors and enthusiastic readers alike. Wright’s ability to engage with the original text while maintaining clarity is praised, as he meticulously guides readers through each verse. His Prose is described as both engaging and relatable, eschewing the dry academic tone often found in biblical commentaries. Readers appreciate how Wright integrates theological insights with a comprehensive understanding of the Scriptures, inviting contemplation beyond isolated verses. While some critics mention a more academic tilt in the commentary, others found its refreshing perspectives and scholarly depth commendable. The commentary's approach to Greek terminology—primarily using the English alphabet—offers an approachable entry point for those hesitant to navigate the original language. Moreover, this volume is frequently recommended alongside other commentaries by authors like John MacArthur and O’Brien, highlighting the book's appeal across various theological backgrounds. Overall, "Colossians and Philemon" proves to be a worthwhile investment for those seeking to deepen their understanding of these biblical texts without getting lost in excessive scholarly debate or technical jargon. **
