1 Corinthians: A Shorter Exegetical and Pastoral Commentary

Anthony Thiselton's lengthy New International Greek Testament
Commentary volume The First Epistle to the Corinthians (2000) has become a
standard work on 1 Corinthians. In this shorter" commentary Thiselton draws on " his excellent exegesis from that volume but combines it afresh with keen
practical and pastoral application for readers at all levels.






Thiselton delves deeply into the context and text of Paul's first
Corinthian letter as he suggests, section by section, how the book applies to
pastoral and practical issues. He draws vivid parallels between the growing
church in Corinth and the twenty-first-century church, demonstrating that
today's church also faces a seductive culture of competition and consumerism.
The church in Corinth preferred its self-centered theology to the
Christ-centered gospel of the wider apostolic church. Paul's response in 1
Corinthians, amplified by Thiselton's commentary, becomes a living, practical,
transforming word from God for Christians today.
