The Word Biblical Commentary

During this Corona pandemic a lot of important work is being doing.  I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Katya Covrett as the New Testament editor for the Word Biblical Commentary (WBC).  It has been one of my go-to commentaries for years.  In fact, at where I work, the Lanier Theological Library, the WBC is one of the most sought after commentary series.  The project has been led over the years by some great scholars whom I know and some I do not.  My predecessors in this project are Ralph Martin and Peter Davids.  It is a joy to add now my efforts to what has been done to make this and keep this a great commentary on the Scripture.  Here is a brief announcement from Zondervan Academic.  I hope you will take a moment and read it.

Professor Seyoon Kim is well on his way to completing the new commentary on 1 & Thessalonians.  I should receive that this summer and will be working on it soon after.

 

More to come.
