1 Corinthians: An Introduction and Commentary Volume 7 - Paperback

by Thomas R. Schreiner (Author), Eckhard J. Schnabel (Other), Nicholas Perrin (Consultant)

The cosmopolitan city of Corinth was the site of one of the apostle Paul's greatest evangelistic successes. However, the church he founded was full of contention. In response, Paul offered some of his most profound thinking on the body of Christ, love, and Jesus' cross and resurrection. In this Tyndale commentary Thomas Schreiner explains the text of the letter, highlights its major theological themes, and points to its relevance for today.
