The Bible Knowledge Background Commentary (Acts-Philemon) (Bible Knowledge Series)

Craig A. Evans, Isobel A. H. Combes, Daniel M. Gurtner

Hardback 2004-04-20

Publisher Description

This powerful reference tool is a book-by-book, chapter-by-chapter, detailed look at the historical, geographical, cultural, and economic background of Acts and the Pauline epistles—Acts-Philemon. Much more than simply theology or a Word study, The Bible Knowledge Background Commentary opens a window to transport the reader back into the setting of the New Testament to see, touch, and hear as much of the world of that time as possible.

The better acquainted you become with the background of the New Testament, the better you'll be able to avoid misunderstanding the allusions and references that run throughout the writings of the New Testament. Historical events, social customs, religious beliefs, figures of speech, turns of phrase, institutions, styles of dress, styles of building, and the very lay of the land all contribute to how the Bible's first readers would have understood it.

With this powerful reference in hand you will never look at the New Testament the same way again!
