Long before the massive Christian Origins and the Question of God, long before "The Right Reverend Father in God, by Divine Providence Lord Bishop of Durham", we had N. T. Wright, Canon Theologian of Westminster Abbey. While some the later themes of Wright's theology are not fully developed by the time he penned this commentary, his lucid way of writing along with his detail-oriented exegetical style makes this an excellent guide to two of Paul's letters. Wright's goal in this small commentary is twofold: 1. "To clear up potential ambiguities or obscurities, so that the reader is able to hear, as nearly as possible, what the text itself says" (10). 2. "To open the reader's eyes to see the text, and those parts of Paul's thought which it reflects, as a whole, over and above the mass of detail" (10). He accomplishes both of these goals in a small sub-two-hundred page package. About a year ago, I preached through the entire book of Colossians, and this commentary was a tremendous help. Anyone who is serious about reading scripture can enjoy this book—no special training required. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries (TNTC) have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelicals scholars, including F. F. Bruce, Leon Morris, N. T. Wright, and Donald Guthrie, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament. Formerly distributed by Eerdmans Publishing Co., InterVarsity Press is pleased to begin offering this series as a compliment to the popular Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries (TOTC). Like the TOTCs, the TNTC volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I would agree with other reviewers that this commentary is not Wright at his most brilliant, but I think he does a phenomenal job of presenting a reading of Colossians which is compelling and well informed. Is this the best commentary on Colossians? No, but for a simple, concise but well informed look at the Colossian epistle, this is perhaps my go-to commentary. O'Brien and Louse (Word and Hermenia) are where I go if I want a more detailed treatment than what Wright has here, though I have not worked through those commentaries as closely, so cannot comment on their overall understanding of the Colossian correspondence.
