In a first-of-its-kind volume, The New Testament in Color offers biblical commentary that is:
- Multiethnic
- Diverse
- Contextual
- Informative
- Reflective
- Prophetic
- 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, bestselling 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.

Gerhard Lohfink
( Liturgical Press )
Gerhard Lohfink, renowned Scripture scholar and Catholic Media Association’s 2023 Author of the Year, invites us to be renewed through the image of the springs of true life bursting forth in our own lives.
The image of springs breaking forth from the earth moves us—not only because pure, fresh water is precious on our exploited planet, but also because springs are among the loveliest and most mysterious natural phenomena. By reflecting on the statement “All my springs are in you,” renowned Scripture scholar Gerhard Lohfink invites us to be renewed through the image of the springs of true life bursting forth in our own lives.
In All My Springs Are in You—citing Psalm 87:7—Lohfink focuses on fundamental beliefs, feasts and liturgical seasons, as well as distinctions and contrasts to break down any narrow interpretations of biblical texts readers may experience. The final verse in the Old Testament offers readers a means to uncover how much hope and revolutionary power may be found in numerous Bible texts that we may or may not be familiar with. By applying the psalm statement “All My Springs Are in You” directly to God, readers will come to read the text in a way that is biblical and transformative.
