1-3 John: A Commentary on the New Testament (Volume 19) (The IVP New Testament Commentary Series)

Torn by conflict, the congregation to whom John addressed his letters stood in need of his strong exhortations to love and unity within the bounds of truth. His word to them is well suited to the church today, confronted by controversies within and without that challenge its ability and will to stand for the truth in a pluralistic society.In this careful study of John's letters, readers will find an introduction that discusses the letters' occasion and purpose, authorship and date, order andtheological themes. A passage-by-passage commentary follows that seeks to explain what each letter means for us today as well as what it meant for its original hearers.Students, pastors, Bible teachers and everyone who wants to understand John's message for the church will benefit from this excellent resource.
