    Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon

    Volume 9

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by J. Robert Wright
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    Among the Wisdom literature of the Old Testament, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon were all thought by the early church fathers to have derived from the hand of Solomon.

As in all the Old Testament, they were ...

    Ezekiel, Daniel

    Old Testament Volume 12

    Reformation Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Carl L. Beckwith

    The Reformation era revolution in preaching and interpreting the Bible did not occur without keen attention to the Old Testament Scriptures.

    John 1-10

    Volume 4A

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Joel C. Elowsky
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    The Gospel of John was beloved by the early church, much as it is today, for its spiritual insight and clear declaration of Jesus' divinity. Clement of Alexandria indeed declared it the "spiritual Gospel." Early disputers with heretics such as Cerinthus and the Ebionites drew upon the Gospel of John to refute their heretical notions and uphold the full deity of Christ, and this Gospel more than ...

    The Throne, the Lamb & the Dragon

    A Reader's Guide to the Book of Revelation

    by Paul Spilsbury

And some faulty interpretations of Revelation are so entrenched in the consciousness of Christians that they are regarded as "gospel truth" and provide riveting plot lines for end-time fiction. But behind the ancient multimedia show that is Revelation lies ...

    The Evangelical Legacy of Slavery in Edwards, Wesley, and Whitefield

    by Sean McGever
    Foreword by Vincent E. Bacote
