Jesus and His Own A Commentary on John 13–17 Daniel B. Stevick This commentary covers the section of John’s Gospel in which Jesus prepares his disciples for the time after he is gone. In Jesus and His Own Daniel Stevick gives careful attention to the literary, structural, and theological features of the text and further points to how and where the Common Lectionary incorporates passages from John 13–17. According to Stevick, the so-called Farewell Discourses of Jesus develop more fully than any other New Testament text the intimate, persisting bonds between the living Jesus and his church — the community of believers who live, through Christ, in close communion with God, under the Spirit, and in tension with the world. The distillation of a senior seminary teacher’s lifelong study and reflection, Jesus and His Own will be especially valuable for pastors preparing to preach from any part of these chapters in John’s Gospel. Daniel B. Stevick is professor emeritus of liturgics and homiletics at Episcopal Divinity School, Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Remember the Poor Paul, Poverty, and the Greco-Roman World Bruce W. Longenecker Combining historical, exegetical, and theological interests, Bruce Longenecker in this book dispels the widespread notion that Paul had little or no concern for the poor. Longenecker’s analysis of poverty in the Greco-Roman world provides the backdrop for a compelling presentation of the importance of care for the poor within Paul’s theology and within the Jesus-groups he had established. Along the way, Longenecker calls into question a variety of interpretive paradigms and offers a fresh vision in which Paul’s theological resources are shown to be both historically significant and theologically challenging. “This book sets out the basis for rethinking the place of ‘remembering the poor’ in the early Jesus-movement of the Greco-Roman world. In addition, it may also contribute to rethinking the place of remembering the poor among groups of Jesus-followers today.” — from the preface Bruce W. Longenecker is professor of religion and holds the W. W. Melton Chair at Baylor University.

Ciampa and Brian S. Rosner In this thorough and cogent mid-level commentary, Roy E. Ciampa and Brian S. Rosner present a coherent reading of 1 Corinthians, taking full account of its Old Testament and Jewish roots. In their view this Corinthian letter shows Paul fulfilling his priestly duty to ensure the purity of God’s temple, the church. Their well-informed, careful exegesis touches on an astonishingly wide swath of important, sensitive issues and points to the letter’s ongoing theological and pastoral significance. “Up to date, replete with many fresh readings, and rooted in the complex historical context that was first-century Corinth, this commentary is in touch with those issues that make 1 Corinthians so relevant for the church. Both useful and edifying, it is a partner to keep close at hand as one probes this ethically relevant epistle.” — Darrell L. Bock Dallas Theological Seminary Roy E. Ciampa is professor of New Testament at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, South Hamilton, Massachusetts. Brian S. Rosner is professor of New Testament and ethics at Moore Theological College, Sydney, Australia.
