Leon Morris offers comment on the book of 1 Corinthians. He explains Paul's threefold purpose of the letter: to set right disorders which the Corinthians took lightly, but were great sins; to answer specific questions from this church; and to give specific teaching about the resurrection. This Paul did amidst great opposition, both from within and without.

The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable, and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament.

These Tyndale volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The introduction to each volume gives a concise but thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the biblical book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also comments on individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation. The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.
