John's Letters (Big Greek Idea Series): An Exegetical Guide for Preaching and Teaching

“Biblical illiteracy is rampant in the church today, resulting in part from the decline (or absence!) of expository preaching from the pulpit. Pastors often don’t have sufficient training in the exegesis of Scripture, or have forgotten much of what they learned in seminary. The Big Greek Idea is a helpful tool to remedy this situation. This series provides a comprehensive analysis of the meaning and function of Greek words, phrases, and clauses in the New Testament books. It is highly recommended for students, pastors, and those who want to sharpen their Greek skills and become better interpreters and expositors of God’s Word.” -- Mark L. Strauss, University Professor of New Testament, Bethel Seminary San Diego

“Herb Bateman and Aaron Peer have provided their readers with a rich feast of Greek grammar and theology. What a wonderful (and extensive!) handbook for students and pastors as they study and teach through the Johannine epistles!” -- Robert L. Plummer, Founder & Host of Daily Dose of Greek, Professor of New Testament Interpretation

“As preachers who proclaim God’s Word, we want to understand the text as best as we can. Herb Bateman and Aaron Peer put the deep grammatical and lexical technicalities of a critical commentary in understandable and usable format. It is a wonderful bridge between the critical scholar and the pastor/teacher.” -- Calvin Pearson, Associate Pastor at Crossroads Baptist, The Woodlands, TX
