Ephesians Verse by Verse by Osborne
While he was in prison, Paul wrote a letter to the Ephesian Christians whose magnificent themes have echoed throughout the centuries: the exaltation of Christ, the church as his body, believers as his new creation, and his defeat of the cosmic powers that opposed him. Throughout, he makes clear that everything we are and have is ours only "in Christ." In Ephesians Verse by Verse, Grant R. Osborne offers a clear exposition of this letter that takes seriously both its first--century context and what it means for us today. Pastors, Bible study leaders, and invested laypeople will all benefit from Osborne's careful reading of the text and commitment to making sense of the New Testament without scholarly jargon. The Osborne New Testament Commentary Series is a set of commentaries on every New Testament book. In each volume, Grant R. Osborne seeks to carefully exposit the text in plain language, bringing out the treasures in each book and making them accessible for today's readers.
Grant Osborne's Ephesians: Verse by Verse is a commentary written by a churchman, for the churchLucid and engaging, the exposition helpfully unpacks Paul's letter in a way that dense logical arguments become clear and hard-to-understand theological concepts are made accessible. Especially praiseworthy is the way Dr. Osborne walks the reader through sometimes divisive passages, summarizing and explaining clearly various interpretive positions. His arguments are consistently fair-minded and balanced, instructive as well as applicable to modern life. Here pastors and other students of God's Word will find a rich resource for navigating Paul's Ephesians.
--George H. Guthrie, Benjamin W. Perry Professor of Bible, Union University
"As a pastor, I have often turned to Osborne's work not only for sermon preparation but personal study. Osborne has a way of balancing academic work and an emphasis on practical application from the biblical truth he is expounding. This truly is a great resource for all Christians wanting to study Ephesians."
--Cody Kargus, senior pastor, Maranatha Evangelical Free Church (Rice Lake, WI)
"A clear and powerful exposition of Ephesians. This commentary has succeeded in explaining how the Triune God works to bring about our salvation and how Christians are to live individually and as a church under the lordship of Christ. The last section on our spiritual warfare is described very vividly and practically. A must-have for Bible study and sermon preparation."
--Janson Chan, executive director, Timothy Training International
"Dr. Grant R. Osborne is well-known to have invested his entire life in the study and explication of the New Testament. His many writings reflect the detailed breadth and depth of his involvement with the text, but in this series, he seeks to complement much of his other work by removing the complexity of many modern commentaries. Here, he provides an easy-to-read explanation of Ephesians and applies its teachings to our lives today. Anyone interested in the mission and writings of the Apostle Paul will find this work to be personally enriching and refreshing indeed."
