REC: 1 & 2 Thessalonians

Years before writing Romans or Ephesians, Paul sent a pair of letters to a new
church in Thessalonica. Three concerns governed Paul's teaching in these
letters: What makes a healthy church? How should we view God's Word? What does
a Christian life look like?

Richard D. Phillips's commentary considers these foundational issues in a
scholarly, pastoral, and practical manner and also explores Paul's end-times
teaching - the clearest found in the New Testament. Through these studies,
readers will find a refreshingly clear biblical summary of what will happen
before, during, and after the Second Coming. Just as importantly, by touring
Paul's singular teaching in 1 and 2 Thessalonians, readers will recover a
joyful anticipation of Christ's return and receive hope for life in a
challenging world.

As Christians, Bible teachers, or gospel ministers, we take our first step " in the study of the Bible by going directly to our copy of GodÆs Word. Then,
seeking to plumb the depths of the text and avoid handling it wrongly, we
secure accurate and thoughtful commentaries from trusted commentators. That is
precisely what we have in Rick PhillipsÆs insightful, faithful, and instructive
commentary on 1 and 2 Thessalonians, which navigates PaulÆs Holy
Spiritûinspired treatment of wide-ranging, yet ever-relevant gospel issues for
life and eternity. - Harry L. Reeder"
