- Book Synopsis
- Explore how the roots of the ancient Christian tradition inform and shape faithfulness today The Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible enlists leading theologians to read and interpret scripture creedally for the twenty-first century, just as the church fathers, the Reformers, and other orthodox Christians did for their times and places. A rich resource for preachers, teachers, students, and study groups, the BTC provides guidance for reading the Bible under the rule of faith. Each volume in the series includes ● a Christological focus and framework grounded in the Nicene Creed ● connections between biblical interpretation and today's social issues ● applications for contemporary faith and life ● devotional depth for meditation and reflection ● insights from literature, philosophy, culture, and more In this volume, a leading theologian known for his expertise on Barth offers a theological reading of Philippians. George Hunsinger draws on patristic and medieval theology and on Calvin, Edwards, Barth, and Torrance as he explores what the biblical text means for ecclesial interpretation today. Ultimately the Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible demonstrates the continuing intellectual and practical viability of theological interpretation of the Bible.
