What an amazingly well preserved scholarly volume, reprinted in 1978 from the 1897 edition in the Twin Brooks Series. James Bickersteth Mayor's commentary is generally recognized as one of the finest works on the epistle of James of all time. He writes: "In the Introduction I have stated my reasons for believing this Epistle to be the earliest of the books of the New Testament, written probably in the fifth decade of the Christian era by one who had been brought up with Jesus from his childhood and whose teaching is in many points identical with the actual words of our Lord as recorded in the Synoptic Gospels." Those with a good command of Greek will benefit most from this commentary, but even those with no Greek should find the massive introduction of interest.

Amazingly excellent condition, though read. First edition, 1956 w/4th printing, June 1971 by Tyndale Press, Tyndale New Testament Commentaries; 152 page paperback. Goodreads: "These Commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text actually says and what it means. The Introduction to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of questions of authorship and date. This is helpful to the general reader by showing the original setting and purpose of this book." Review: The two letters to the Thessalonians dwell richly on the Christian hope and emphasize the significance of the Christian calling in the here and now. In this commentary Leon Morris offers a solid exegetical discussion of specific problems relating to the composition of the letters themselves, yet his exposition is also pervaded by an acute awareness of the relevance of Paul's message to the practical problems encountered in living the Christian life."

A solid classic by the great theological scholar, J. I. Packer. A theological masterpiece. This is a small easy-to-read, 126-page paperback on the theological issue balancing God's sovereignty with man's responsibility for evangelism. Copy written in 1961 and this is a FIRST EDITION with a printing date of May 1966. This concise review is found online: "Everything I've ever read from the pen of James Innell Packer has been pure gold. This book is no exception. It is short enough to be read quickly, but packed with such solid theology that it can be read over and over with new benefits. The strength of this book is not the presentation of methods for evangelism (Packer spends little time with this), but rather the theological tension of divine sovereign and human responsibility. Packer leads the reader into the deep end of the doctrinal pool gently, slowly, and with Scriptural fidelity and clarity."
