This careful, sometimes innovative, mid-level commentary touches on an astonishingly wide swath of important, sensitive issues - theological and pastoral - that have urgent resonances in twenty-first-century life. This thorough commentary presents a coherent reading of 1 Corinthians, taking full account of its Old Testament and Jewish roots and demonstrating Paula's primary concern for the unity and purity of the church and the glory of God. Those who preach and teach 1 Corinthians will be grateful to Ciampa and Rosner for years to come and scholars will be challenged to see this letter with fresh eyes.

Professor Hering was Professor Emeritus of the University of Strasbourg, where for many years had been a famous Protestant New Testament scholar. His wide philosophical interests include ethics and phenomenology, and he was well known as a contributor to the Revue d'historie et de philosophie religieuse. His commentary on La second epitre de saint Paul aux Corinthiens appeared in 1958, and in 1959 the new edition of his Le royaume de Dieu et sa venue. But this work is the first to be translated into English, and a lifetime of New Testament study lies behind it. At Professor Hering's request a new English translation of the text of the Epistle has been prepared, which embodies the conclusions reached in the critical notes of the commentary. The body of the commentary is intelligible to the general reader, and the footnotes, in which much rich scholarship is garnered, are richly rewarding to the scholar and student. Knowledge of Greek is not essential; Greek words are transliterated into English letters, and generally are at once translated.

This superb volume in the New International Greek Testament Commentary series provides the most detailed, definitive, and distinctive commentary on 1 Corinthians available in English to date. One of the world's most respected Christian theologians, Anthony Thiselton here provides in-depth discussion of the language of 1 Corinthians, presents his own careful translation of the Greek, traces the main issues of interpretation from the church fathers to the present, and highlights topics of theological, ethical, and sociohistorical interest today, including ethics and "rights," marriage, divorce and remarriage, "headship," gender, prophecy, and many others. No other commentary on 1 Corinthians embodies the wealth and depth of detail presented in Thiselton's work, which takes account of nearly all scholarly research on 1 Corinthians and incorporates substantial bibliographies throughout. In his commentary Thiselton indeed addresses virtually every question that thoughtful, serious readers -- scholars, students, pastors, teachers -- may wish to ask of or about the text of 1 Corinthians. His work truly offers a fresh, comprehensive, and original contribution to our understanding of this major epistle and its contemporary relevance.
