TNTC 12: Colossians and Philemon

Colossians presents a picture of Christ who is 'the firstborn over all
creation' and has disarmed and triumphed over the powers and authorities. The
letter also appeals to its readers to seek humble maturity, a maturity not
possible apart from the person and work of Jesus Christ. N. T Wright's stated
goal is to 'to give the text back to the reader uncluttered by a mass of
glosses'. In Philemon, Paul makes a personal appeal to a fellow believer to
receive a runaway slave, Onesimus, in love and forgiveness. For Wright, it is
'an acted parable of the gospel itself'.This classic commentary has been
completely retypeset and presented in a fresh, vibrant new large paperback
format, with new global branding.
