A balanced, accessible commentary for Spirit-filled Christians
The Spirit who inspired the authors of the New Testament is at work today around the globe, as evidenced by the explosive growth of Pentecostal, charismatic, and renewalist movements; the number of adherents is now estimated at more than half a billion.
The Word and Spirit Commentary on the New Testament meets the need for a balanced, affordable, and accessible commentary series aimed at Christians who identify as Spirit-filled. Features include:
● written by pastorally sensitive biblical scholars from the Spirit-filled tradition
● paragraph-by-paragraph commentary
● images, illustrations, and sidebars on Pentecostal/charismatic/revival history or insights
● engages biblical books in their ancient setting
● emphasizes how we listen alongside ancient audiences for the Spirit's voice in our time and contexts
Series volumes explore how God works in the biblical texts and how Christians can expect God to work today, even if in new or culturally surprising ways. Series editors are Holly Beers, Westmont College, and Craig S. Keener, Asbury Theological Seminary.
