Leon Morris's study on I Corinthians is a contribution to the Tyndale New Testament Commentaries, a popular commentary designed to help the general Bible reader understand clearly what the text actually says and what it means, without undue recourse to scholarly technicalities.

Leon Morris (1914-2006), one of the leading evangelical New Testament scholars of the twentieth century, served as principal of Ridley College in Melbourne, Australia. He was the author of more than forty works, including The Apostolic Preaching of the Cross, The Atonement, and comprehensive scholarly studies on Matthew, Luke, John and Romans. He was the general editor of the Tyndale New Testament Commentaries and wrote the volumes in that series on Luke, 1 Corinthians, 1 & 2 Thessalonians and Revelation.
"The Tyndale volumes have long been the premier shorter-length commentary series on both Testaments throughout the English-speaking world." (Craig Blomberg, Denver Seminary)
"Tyndale commentaries are always useful, not least because they focus so clearly on the text of Scripture, and do not fall into the trap of paying too much attention to other commentaries and not enough to the scriptural text they are intended to expound and explain. So they retain their usefulness for preachers, Bible study leaders and for all readers of the Bible." (Peter Adam, principal, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia)
"Within its constraints, this series includes some outstanding volumes." (D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School)
"There simply is no series of medium-length commentaries that approaches the excellence of the Tyndale commentaries." (Donald A. Hagner, Fuller Theological Seminary)
"The evenness and quality of this series are remarkable." (Christianity Today)

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. New Testament scholars have widely recognized and acknowledged the occasional nature of Paul's first canonical letter to the Corinthians. In the letter, Paul addresses real problems that were faced by real people in a real world. This commentary shows how the church in the twenty-first century mirrors the Corinthian Church in many ways. It goes further to show how the church in the present day, particularly its leaders, could benefit from how Paul addressed the situations that the church faced. 1 Corinthians serves as our most detailed source of information regarding the good, the bad, and ugly in the daily life of early followers of Jesus. For that reason, Paul's letter to these believers offers us valuable guidance for today's church. In this commentary, Dr. Ayodeji Adewuya provides a helpful resource for the busy pastor looking for help with sermon preparation on this important letter. At the same time, this book will assist today's serious Christian wanting to understand Paul's letter to these Spirit-filled but divided Christians in a deeper way. --James Miller, Asbury Seminary This is an excellent book bridging the gap between biblical scholarship and how the church needs to grow in maturity and in numbers--providing useful insights, resources, and training in support of church ministries. The rare combination of brilliant scholarship and an unapologetic African pastor's urge comes through the pages as a gift to the global church. I appreciate the depth and breadth, as well as the challenge it offers for spiritual maturity. It is spiritually edifying and refreshing to journey along with Professor Adewuya on tour exploring what is going on in 1 Corinthians and how that may inform how we live as Christians. --from the foreword by Dan Darko, Gordon College J. Ayodeji Adewuya is professor of New Testament at the Pentecostal Theological Seminary, Cleveland, Tennessee. He is the author of several books, including Holiness in the Letters of Paul (2016). He is a pastor, missionary, and church planter. Seller Inventory # 00110291728
