Journeys of the Apostle Paul by Craig S. Keener Pdf
Follow the Life and Ministry of Christianity's Leading Missionary. The Apostle Paul is one of the most important figures in the early church. He is a main character in the narrative woven through the book of Acts and his thirteen letters make up a significant portion of the New Testament canon. Because Acts and his letters appear as discrete books in Scripture, it can be difficult to piece together a clear narrative for Paul's life and ministry. In Journeys of the Apostle Paul, 20 contributors present a coherent picture of Paul's life, connecting the events in Acts to his letters and theological teaching. With beautifully rendered maps and timelines, this book takes readers through the Acts narratives of Paul's journeys step by step--his interrupted journey to Damascus while persecuting Christians; his three missionary journeys; and his long journey from Jerusalem to Rome. Along the way, you'll discover new insights into his life, his teaching, and his role in the early church.
Drawing on his monumental scholarly study Early Christian Mission (Volume 2), Eckhard J. Schnabel's gives us an overview of Paul's missionary practices, strategies and methods, and then weighs contemporary evangelical missiology and practice in light of Paul.

The Astonishing and Daunting Journeys of the Apostle Paul by Tom Kloske Pdf
Paul's adventurous journeys did not end with his 3 missionary journeys and voyage to Rome! After being released from house arrest, Paul went on a "4th journey" and left us "hints" in his writings as to those he would see, this would be his "Farewell Tour." He probably first sailed to Spain, then sailed to the island of Crete and left Titus there (Tit. 1:5). Then sailed to Miletus and walked to Colossae to see the brethren there and to spend time with Philemon, thanking him for his forgiveness of his runaway slave. Then he walked to Ephesus and eventually sailed to Philippi to come full circle in checking on everyone he wrote to while under house arrest. This book completes Paul's Fairwell Tour before he met his fate back in Rome with Nero. The accomplishments of the apostle Paul inspired me to write this book. His achievements were quite remarkable, and more people need to know of his tremendous contribution to the New Testament. This work on Paul's Fourth Missionary Journey is an excellent integration of the letters of Paul's and Luke's presentation of the three journeys and trip to Rome, leading to a lovely, plausible reconstruction of a Fourth missionary journey of Paul. It is well-written and reader-friendly. I plan on using Tom's manuscript in my Acts classes. I've never seen anything like it! Dr. C.

The Pulpit Commentary, Volume 9 by Spence-Jones, Henry Pdf
The Pulpit Commentary was first published between 1880 and 1919 and is a highly respected work written by conservative, trustworthy men. Containing over 22,000 pages and 95,000 entries, it is one of the largest and best-selling homiletic commentary sets of all time. It was directed by editors Joseph Exell and Henry Donald Maurice Spence-Jones and utilized more than 100 authors over a 30-year span. When reading this commentary, it is not difficult to see why it has remained a favorite amongst pastors for more than 100 years. There are three key elements which set this apart from its contemporaries, the first being that it gives an exposition or verse-by-verse annotation of each verse in the Bible. The second element is that it explores the framework of the text, the homiletics. Finally, it supplies the homilies with multiple model sermons from various authors. Also included is a translation as well as historical and geographical information. The Evangelical Magazine and Missionary Chronicle declared, “This commentary bids fair to take a conspicuous place among the ever-multiplying aids to the study of the Holy Scriptures. It will revive the great work of Lange, and will far exceed the Speaker's Commentary in the bulk and fullness of its material. The peculiarity of the Pulpit Commentary is that it offers special assistance to the preacher: first by giving him a critical and exegetical exposition of the text of Scripture, and then providing him with succinct and helpful directions as to the preachable aspects of the chapter and paragraph already explained." The print edition of this set typically retails for more than $1,000 making the current offered price a very good bargain. Due to its size, it has been broken up into nine separate volumes: Volume 1 - Genesis to Joshua Volume 2 - Judges to 2 Kings Volume 3 - 1 Chronicles to Job Volume 4 - Psalms to Song of Songs Volume 5 - Isaiah to Daniel Volume 6 - Hosea to Malachi Volume 7 - Matthew to John Volume 8 - Act to Philippians Volume 9- Colossians to Revelation The footnotes have been placed in line with the text with each footnote number enclosed in red brackets (i.e.: []) and the text in green. There is also a linked table of contents at the beginning of each volume for ease of navigation. Key Features: * Over 22,000 pages with more than 95,000 entries * One of the largest and exhaustive commentary sets of its kind * Contributions from over 100 authors * Expositions—with thorough verse-by-verse commentary of each verse of the Bible * Homiletics—with the framework or overall look of the text * Homilies—four to six sample sermons from various authors * Detailed information on Biblical customs * Historical and geographical information * Translations of key Hebrew and Greek words All 23 Volumes of the printed version are included in these nine volumes. 1.
