Publisher's Synopsis
A unique alternative to commentaries and study Bibles, Dr. Anderson's Interpretive Guide to the Bible is an eight-volume series that consists of an interpretive guide to each book of the Bible, as well as introductions to the Pentateuch and the Gospels. For each book of the Bible, there is a brief introduction to the book; a discussion of introductory issues (such as author, date, writing style, and addressees); a paragraph-level subject outline of the book; an "argument" which traces the flow of thought throughout the book but also deals with macrostructure, theology, and interpretive issues; and an annotated bibliography. This series originated in a massive, multi-year project that was part of Dr. Steven Anderson's Ph.D. program in Biblical Studies at Dallas Theological Seminary, but it incorporates insights gained throughout a lifetime of Bible training and academic study. Volume 7 of Dr. Anderson's Interpretive Guide to the Bible covers Acts and the Pauline epistles (Acts, Romans, 1 & 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, and Philemon).
