A Survey of Recent Research

The Face of New Testament Studies

A well-respected New Testament scholar provides a substantive yet accessible commentary on this difficult and intriguing book of the Bible.

Revelation

John is at once the most complex and the easiest to understand of all the Gospels. If we want a young seeker or new believer to read something that is both clear and filled with the gospel and good basic theology, we give them the Gospel of John. And if we want to study an incredibly deep theological masterpiece that stretches the brightest mind, we open the Gospel of John. It is the most evangelistic account of Jesus' life and ministry, and it also gives the mature Christian deep theological truths to chew on. In John Verse by Verse, respected New Testament scholar Grant R. Osborne invites the reader to become caught up in the dramatic masterpiece of the Fourth Gospel. He writes, "If I were teaching a course in college or seminary on creative writing, John's Gospel would be set alongside Shakespeare as models of brilliant characterization and plot." It is perhaps Osborne's favorite book of the Bible, and enthusiasm for it shines on every page. The Osborne New Testament Commentaries, by respected professor and author Grant R. Osborne, are for people seeking a straightforward explanation of the text in its context, avoiding either oversimplification or technical complexity. Osborne brings out the riches of the New Testament, making each book accessible for pastors and all who consider themselves students of Scripture.

John Verse by Verse

O livro de Apocalipse contém algumas das passagens mais difíceis das Escrituras. O comentário de Osborne sobre Apocalipse tem como alvo interpretar o texto e, ao mesmo tempo, apresentar aos leitores as perspectivas da erudição contemporânea de maneira clara e acessível. Osborne começa com uma detalhada introdução a Apocalipse e mostra as muitas dificuldades associadas a sua interpretação. Ele discute a autoria, data da composição e o ambiente social e cultural da obra. Analisa também os elementos que tornam tão complexa a interpretação da literatura apocalíptica, incluindo o uso de símbolos e figuras de linguagem, alusões ao Antigo Testamento e o papel da predição profética. O autor analisa diversas abordagens de comentaristas quanto a se Apocalipse se refere principalmente ao passado ou aos eventos que ainda estão no futuro, evitando uma abordagem interpretativa demasiadamente técnica. Em vez de fazer a exegese do texto de maneira muito restrita, segundo o método versículo por versículo, ele analisa seções mais extensas com o intuito de identificar e ressaltar a mensagem central e a teologia ali encontradas. Em todo o livro, ele interage com o melhor da erudição recente e apresenta suas conclusões de maneira acessível.

Exploring the Christian Faith

The Book of Revelation contains some of the most difficult passages in Scripture. Grant Osborne's commentary on Revelation begins with a thorough introduction and the many difficulties involved in its interpretation. He also examines elements that complicate the interpretation of apocalyptic literature. As with all volumes published in the BECNT series, Revelation seeks to reach a broad audience with scholarly research from a decidedly evangelical perspective.

Revelation (Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament)

Few individual books of the Bible have changed the course of church history the way Paul's letter to the Romans has. Whether one thinks of Augustine's conversion in the fourth century, Luther's recovery of justification by faith in the sixteenth or Barth's challenge to recover theological exegesis of the Bible in the twentieth, Romans has been the catalyst to personal spiritual renewal and the recapturing of gospel basics. Paul, in seeking to bring unity and understanding between Jews and Gentiles in Rome, sets forth in Romans his most profound explication of the gospel and its meaning for the church. The letter's relevance is as great today as it was in the first century. Throughout this commentary, Grant R. Osborne explains what the letter meant to its original hearers and its application for us today.

Romans

Even though he was writing from prison, the Apostle Paul's gratitude and joy leaps off the page in his letter to the Philippians. He writes to Christians in a Greek city that he visited on his second missionary journey to thank them for their partnership with him, and also to encourage them to maintain unity in the face of forces that were trying to divide them. In Philippians Verse by Verse, Grant R. Osborne draws on years of examining the text to offer a clear explanation of what this book meant to its original audience and what it means today. In spite of sometimes dire circumstances, readers too may experience joy, encouragement, and fellowship if they remain focused on what God has done for them in Christ. The Osborne New Testament Commentary Series is a set of commentaries on every New Testament book for people who are looking for a straightforward explanation of the text. In each volume, Grant R. Osborne seeks to carefully exposit the text in plain language, bringing out the treasures in each book and making them accessible for today's readers.

Philippians Verse by Verse

In Romans Verse by Verse, Grant R. Osborne shows readers what Romans meant to its original audience and what it means today. He keeps scholarly discussions in the background so he can shine light on the text itself in a way that is easily understood.
