Reseña del libro "2 Peter and Jude - Concordia Commentary (en Inglés)"
With vivid clarity these brief epistles build up their readers as they warn against false teachers who deceive and promote promiscuity. In this single volume, paired commentary, Rev. Dr. Curtis Giese considers the history of their reception in the church, including the early questions of canonicity and recent debates on their authorship. Giese argues that Jude was written by Jude the half-brother of Christ and that later Peter, inspired by the Holy Spirit, drew drew on that epistle for his own second letter. These epistles fortified the early church against the assaults of heresy, and they can do the same for the church today.FeaturesA faithful exploration of canonicity, applied to the early church and to todayReconstruction of the congregational struggles and outside pressures facing the congregations of 2 Peter and JudeA scholarly overview of authorial timelines for both epistlesEssaysTheosis and 2 Peter 1:4The Book of Enoch and Jude's referenceAbout the seriesThe Concordia Commentary Series: A Theological Exposition of Sacred Scripture is written to enable pastors and teachers of the Word to proclaim the Gospel with greater insight, clarity, and faithfulness to the divine intent of the Biblical text.The series will cover all the canonical books of the Old and New Testament, with an original translation and meticulous grammatical analysis of the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek of each text.
