By dividing the volumes according to the socioreligious contexts for which they were written, Witherington sheds fresh light on the documents, their provenance, character and importance. Throughout, Witherington shows his thorough knowledge of recent literature on these texts and focuses his attention on the unique insights brought about through socio-rhetorical analysis that either reinforces or corrects those gleaned from other approaches. Bridging the Horizons sections point to the relevance of the text for believers today, making this volume of special value to pastors and general readers as well as to students and scholars.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>This commentary format allows Witherington to showcase his greatest strengths as an exegete--his familiarity with ancient rhetoric, his vast knowledge of both Greco-Roman and Jewish backgrounds, and his keen and creative historical imagination.</p>--Kelly David Liebengood, Midwestern Journal of Theology, Fall 2008<br><br><p>Witherington writes clearly, interacting with other scholarly viewpoints in a fair manner and providing the reader with a thoughtful and theologically rich commentary.</p>--The Bible Today, March 2008<br>
