The New International Bible Commentary Series offers the best of contemporary scholarship in a format that both general readers and serious students can use with profit.

In this accessible distillation of scholarship on these two books the author attends to the cultural structures through which they developed, their literary shape, and their theological perspectives.

Based on the New International Version of the Bible, the NIBC presents careful section-by-section exposition with key terms and phrases high-lighted and all Greek transliterated. A separate section of notes at the close of each chapter provides additional textual and technical comments. Each commentary also includes a selected bibliography as well as scripture and subject indexes.
