An expanding set of full-length commentaries written specifically for those who interpret the Bible through teaching and preaching in the church. Library Journal Craddock, a noted professor of preaching and of New Testament, provides an introduction to Luke, a section-by-section commentary on Luke's Gospel, and a selected bibliography. This commentary is focused upon the use of Luke's Gospel in Christian preaching and teaching, concentrating on the meaning of the narrative as a whole, its sequences, and its echoes of the Old Testament. Highly recommended for seminaries and public libraries.
