In this addition to the award-winning BECNT series, respected New Testament scholar George Guthrie offers a substantive evangelical commentary on 2 Corinthians. He leads readers through the intricacies of literary structure, word meanings, cultural backdrop and theological proclamation, offering insights applicable to modern ministry contexts.
As with all BECNT volumes, this commentary features the author's detailed interaction with the Greek text, extensive research, chapter-by-chapter exegesis, and a user-friendly design. It admirably achieves the dual aims of the series - academic sophistication with pastoral sensitivity and accessibility - making it a useful tool for pastors, church leaders, students and teachers.
"George Guthrie brings his significant skills to the task of interpreting this complex Pauline letter and proves to be a competent and helpful guide... His judgments on the interpretive issues are always fair and insightful, and I especially appreciate the clarity of his writing."
- Clinton E. Arnold, Dean and Professor of New Testament, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
