The New Testament in Color: A Multiethnic Bible Commentary
Esau McCaulley, Janette Ok, Osvaldo Padilla, Amy Peeler, Eds.
( IVP Academic )
In a first of its kind volume The New Testament in Color offers a Biblical commentary that is multiethnic, diverse, contextual, informative, reflective, prophetic, and inspiring.
“I wish someone had handed The New Testament in Color to me twenty-five years ago, and I hope many will read it now.” Nijay Gupta, Best-Selling author of Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught, and Ministered in the Early Church.
Historically, Bible commentaries have focused on the particular concerns of a limited segment of the church, all too often missing fresh questions and perspectives that are fruitful for biblical interpretation. Listening to scholars from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities offers us an opportunity to explore the Bible from a wider angle, a better vantage point.
The New Testament in Color is a one-volume commentary on the New Testament written by a multiethnic team of scholars holding orthodox Christian beliefs. Each scholar brings exegetical expertise coupled with a unique interpretive lens to illuminate the ways social location and biblical interpretation work together. Theologically orthodox and multiethnically contextual, The New Testament in Color fills a gap in biblical understanding for both the academy and the church. Who we are and where God placed us―it’s all useful for better understanding his Word.
