Review:

And if I thought the list of contributors was great in the later DNTB volume, I was blown away by those who wrote for this earlier dictionary. Again, I can't recommend this volume highly enough. (Nick Norelli, Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth, June 16, 2008)

"In the present state of Pauline studies a dictionary of this sort is timely and well-conceived." (Charles F. Moule, University of Cambridge)

"The DPL is a quiet magnificent achievement; a reliable and comprehensive guide which will be invaluable for specialists, teachers, clergy and students." (Graham N. Stanton, University of Cambridge)

"A mine of information for all students of Paul for many years to come." (N. T. Wright, Bishop of Durham)

"The DPL is an informed, up-to-date and helpful introduction to Paul's thought and letters. Bringing together a great deal of significant material on crucial topics in the study of Paul, it serves admirably not only as an important text for theological students . . .but also as a vital resource for active ministers in their faithful proclamation and application of the gospel" (Richard N. Longenecker, Professor Emeritus, Wycliffe College, University of Toronto)

"The editors, contributors and publishers are to be congratulated for this handsome, 'user-friendly' volume which serves up many hearty and healthy Paulinemeals that are suitable for a variety of diets--the inquisitve layperson, the hard-pressed pastor, the industrious student, the overburdened teacher and the seasoned scholar." (Murray J. Harris, Professor Emeritus, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School)

"The DPL provides an authoritative guide to Paul and his world for all who are interested." (James H. Charlesworth, Princeton Theological Seminary)

"In this splendid new reference work the serious student of the Bible will find a comprehensive summary of the best of modern scholarship concerning the life, times and thought of St. Paul . . . . I will be recommending it enthusiastically to my students and consulting it regularly in my personal study." (W. Ward Gasque, President, Pacific Association for Theological Studies)

"The DPL will be a great help for students of theology and men and women in ministry, as well as for academic theologians." (Peter Stuhlmacher, Professor Emeritus, University of Tubingen)
