    Pocket Dictionary for the Study of Biblical Hebrew

    The IVP Pocket Reference Series

    by Todd J. Murphy

The vocabulary offers almost no points of contact with English. The verb system is utterly alien. And the lexicons, grammars and textbooks are wrapped up in a metalanguage--spiked with Latin--that is daunting in itself. For those who feel that studying the English ...

    Romans

    A Commentary on the New Testament

    The IVP New Testament Commentary Series

    by Grant R. Osborne

    Few individual books of the Bible have changed the course of church history the way Paul's letter to the Romans has. Whether one thinks of Augustine's coversion in the fourth century, Luther's recovery of justification by faith in the sixteenth orBarth's challenge to recover theological exegesis of the Bible in the twentieth, Romans has been the catalyst to personal spiritual renewal and the recapturing ...
