This is neither theology nor a word study: It's a means of transporting the reader back to New Testament days to see, touch and hear as much of the world at that time as possible. Readers will appreciate the book's unique layout as it goes chapter-by-chapter through the historical, geographical, cultural and economic background of the biblical books of John and Hebrews through Revelation. The commentary uses extreme detail to take the reader right into New Testament settings, not through theology or word study, but through the sights and sounds of the world where Christ and His disciples walked. Since "any text apart from its context is a misunderstood text," the background information this volume supplies will help the reader gain the correct biblical interpretation.Evans, Craig A. is the author of 'Bible Knowledge Background Commentary John's Gospel, Hebrews-Revelation', published 2005 under ISBN 9780781442282 and ISBN 0781442281.
