Synopsis

The Book of Colossians contains important teachings for an integrated and diverse society. As the church in Colossae began to grow, the members faced challenges in understanding their identity as Christians and their relationship with God. Paul's letters to the Colossians and to Philemon address theological truths and practical issues of faith. These matters are timeless, and a careful study of these books will be a life-changing experience!

"Owen Olbricht's commentary On Colossians reflects not only mature Bible scholarship, but also decades of teaching. It is with pleasure that I commend Olbricht's work, a ready reference for the biblical text of Colossians.

"Bruce McLarty is an outstanding preacher and an able exegete. McLarty will challenge the reader to think about Philemon and his slave, Onesimus, in ways that will draw him repeatedly to this little letter!"
Duane Warden, Ph.D.
Professor of Bible, Harding University
