Tom Wright's eye-opening comments on these letters are combined, passage by passage, with his fresh and inviting new translation of the Bible text. Making use of his true scholar's understanding, yet writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Wright captures the tension and excitement of the time as the letters seek to assert Paul's authority and his teaching against other influences.
The For Everyone Series was created to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament.

Bishop Wright has hit a homerun! These studies are comprehensive yet terse. The critical arguments by Paul are well clarified using present day examples. Excellent for Bible Study groups; the two studies are well paced.
