Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from the twentieth century to the first century. But they leave us there, assuming that we can somehow make the return journey on our own. In other words, they focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss its contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable -- but the job is only half done! The NIV Application Commentary Series helps us with both halves of the interpretive task. This new and unique series shows readers how to bring an ancient message into a modern context. It explains not only what the Bible means but also how it can speak powerfully today.

Mark

Romans has been described as the theological epistle par excellence. Paul emphasizes that salvation is by God's grace alone and that freedom, hope, and the gift of righteousness are secured through Christ's death and resurrection. In this Tyndale Commentary, David Garland offers clear guidance along the rewarding, though sometimes difficult, paths of this great letter.

Continuing a Gold Medallion Award-winning legacy, this completely revised edition of The Expositor's Bible Commentary series puts world-class biblical scholarship in your hands. Based on the original twelve-volume set that has become a staple in college and seminary libraries and pastors' studies worldwide, this new thirteen-volume edition marshals the most current evangelical scholarship and resources. Of the fifty-six contributors, thirty of them are new. Reflecting the commentary's international and cross-denominational approach, they come from the United States, Canada, England, Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand, and from a broad diversity of churches, including Anglican, Baptist, Brethren, Methodist, Nazarene, Presbyterian, and Reformed. The Expositor's Bible Commentary uses the complete New International Version for its English text, but also refers freely to other translations and to the original languages. The thoroughly revised features consist of: * Comprehensive introductions * A short and precise bibliography * A detailed outline * Insightful exposition of passages and verses * Overviews of sections of Scripture to illumine the big picture * Occasional reflections to give more detail on important issues * Notes on textual questions and special problems, placed close to the text in question * Transliterations and translation of Hebrew and Greek words, enabling readers to understand even the more technical notes * A balanced and respectful approach toward marked differences of opinion

Comentarios Bíblicos con aplicación: Serie NVILa mayoría de los comentarios bíblicos solo son un viaje de ida: nos llevan del siglo veintiuno al siglo primero. Pero nos dejan allí, dando por sentado que de algún modo sabremos regresar por nosotros mismos. Dicho de otro modo, se centran en el significado original del pasaje, pero no se adentran en su aplicación a la vida contemporánea. La información que ofrecen es muy valiosa, pero resulta tan solo una ayuda a medias. Los Comentarios Bíblicos con aplicación: Serie NVI nos ayudan con las dos partes de la tarea interpretativa, es decir, también nos ayudan a aplicar un mensaje de otra época a nuestro contexto actual. No solo nos explican lo que significó para los lectores originales, sino que nos demuestran que también hay un mensaje poderoso para la iglesia de hoy. Para lograrlo, analizan cada pasaje en tres partes: 1) Sentido original, 2) Construyendo puentes entre los contextos del autor y el nuestro, 3) Significado contemporáneo.

This is a completely revised edition of Gold Medallion Award-winning Expositor's Bible Commentary. This revised commentary has undergone substantial revisions that keep pace with current evangelical scholarship and resources. Just as its previous edition, it offers a major contribution to the study and understanding of the Scriptures. Providing pastors and Bible students with a comprehensive and scholarly tool for the exposition of the Scriptures and the teaching and proclamation of the gospel, this ten-volume reference work has become a staple of seminary and college libraries and pastors' studies worldwide. Its fifty-six contributors---thirty of them are new---represent the best in evangelical scholarship committed to the divine inspiration, complete trustworthiness, and full authority of the Bible. As before, The Expositor's Bible Commentary features full NIV text, but also refers freely to other translations and to the original languages. In addition to its exposition, each book of the Bible has an introduction, outline, and an updated bibliography. Notes on textual questions and special problems are correlated with the expository units; transliteration and translation of Semitic and Greek words make the more technical notes accessible to readers unacquainted with the biblical languages. In matters where marked differences of opinion exist, commentators, while stating their own convictions, deal fairly and irenically with opposing views.
