Eerdmans gives five recent studies in Paul sure to make a big impact
Senior scholar and authority on early Christianity, especially early Christian worship, made a few posts this week on the supposed “hymns” of Col 1:15-20 and Phil 2:6-11 and has weighed in with a few posts. (We added a few comments of our own here.)
We featured a great Greek resource, Devotions on the Greek New Testament, ed. Duvall & Verbrugge, that helps you stay in your Greek a bit at a time and enjoy some devotional thoughts along the way.
