This work is not a history of New Testament times, nor an account of New Testament religion. Nor does it proceed from a view that the New Testament was written as theology. We must bear in mind that the writers of the New Testament books were not writing set theological pieces. They were concerned with the needs of the churches for which they wrote. Those churches already had the Old Testament, but these new writings became in time the most significant part of the Scriptures of the believing community. As such, they should be studied in their own right, and these questions should be asked: What do these writings mean? What is the theology they express or imply? What is of permanent validity in them? We read these writings across a barrier of many centuries and from a standpoint of a very different culture. We make every effort to allow for this, but we never succeed perfectly. In this book I am trying hard to find out what the New Testament authors meant, and this not as an academic exercise, but as the necessary prelude to our understanding of what their writings mean for us today. -- From the Introduction

Homage: New Orleans, which recently received an IPPY Gold Medal Award in the performing arts category, is a photographic journey through contemporary music culture stemming from the southern city. This elegantly designed book includes over 300 images capturing the personalities and performances of some of the most influential and impactful jazz, soul, world, roots and blues legends of our times. Featured artists include New Orleans greats like Dr John, the Neville Brothers, Irma Thomas and Wynton Marsalis, and jazz, blues, soul, African and reggae legends like Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Nina Simone, Fela Kuti, Jimmy Cliff, Cab Calloway and James Brown. In addition to the stunning collection of images, Homage: New Orleans includes the unique insights of an industry insider who is also an unreconstructed fan of the musical culture of New Orleans. Morris writes of his experiences and reflections on the musicians, the music industry, the central role of New Orleans and the Mississippi Delta in the development of contemporary music, and explains the evolving role of music photography from the point of view of an artist whose career has straddled both analogue and digital eras. The resulting book provides a singular viewpoint over two decades, in images and words, from an outside observer who clearly has a deep affection, commitment and connection to the city and its culture.

The Gospel According to St. Luke: An Introduction and Commentary (Tyndale New Testament Commentaries)

Christian Books & Bibles

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co.

In this most intensely practical of all of St. Paul's letters the principles so necessary for the life and service of the Christian church are clearly and forcibly presented. Writing that the study of Paul's first letter to the Corinthians "is immensely rewarding," Dr. Morris continues, "This letter arises out of the practical difficulties besetting a far-from-ideal first-century Greek church. Here we have a typical Paulie letter. The apostle praises his correspondents for their Christian virtues, and rebukes them roundly for their many failings. He adds to their knowledge with some great passages, notably his discussion of love in chapter 13 and of the resurrection in chapter 15. Whatever he touches he deals with in the light of great Christian principles. He sees things temporal always in the light of things eternal. What he writes has relevance to our own, in many ways very different, needs."

The First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians (Tyndale New Testament Commentaries)

W.B. Eerdmans

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. 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.

The Revelation of St. John: An Introduction and Commentary (Tyndale New Testament Commentaries)

The letters to the Thessalonians dwell richly upon the Christian hope and emphasize the meaning and earnestness of the Christian’s calling in the present world. While Dr. Morris offers a scholarly exegetical discussion of specific problems and details, there is pervading his exposition an awareness of the relevance of Paul’s message to the practical problems encountered in living the Christian life. This classic work on First and Second Thessalonians has proved - and will continue to prove - useful to a wide range of readers, including scholars, pastors, Bible students, and educated Christians.

The First and Second Epistles to the Thessalonians (The New International Commentary on the New Testament)

Eerdmans

Recognizing the central importance of the Fourth Gospel in any series on the New Testament, Morris devoted more than ten years to preparing this volume. Written with considerable acumen and a thorough knowledge of the previous scholarly work on the Johannine text, The Gospel according to John is one of the largest and most comprehensive commentaries ever to come out of the evangelical community. This revised edition includes significant modifications and additions made in the light of more recent writings on John's Gospel. While maintaining substantially the same stance taken in his original work, Morris here references important secondary sources and studies that have appeared over the last two decades. The commentary is now also based on the New International Version.
