Pillar New Testament Commentary (PNTC): The Letters to Timothy and Titus (Yarbrough)

For the Olive Tree Bible App

Title: Pillar New Testament Commentary (PNTC): The Letters to Timothy and Titus (Yarbrough)
Publisher: Eerdmans Publishing Company
Author: Robert Yarbrough

Description

The Pastoral Letters—1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, and Titus—have made an enduring contribution to understanding the role of pastors in the church. With a spirited devotion to the text, Robert Yarbrough helps unlock the meaning of these short but rich letters in this commentary.

In keeping with the character of Pillar New Testament Commentary volumes, The Letters to Timothy and Titus offers a straightforward reading of these texts. Their primary concerns—God, salvation, and the pastoral task—remain central to Yarbrough’s thorough and comprehensive exegesis. Engaging with the best scholarship and resources, Yarbrough shows how these letters are as relevant today as they were to the early Christians.

The Pillar New Testament Commentary, designed for serious readers of the Bible, seeks above all to make clear the meaning of the text of Scripture as we have it. Writers of the PNTC volumes interact with the most important, informed contemporary debate yet avoid undue technical detail. Their ideal is a blend of rigorous exegesis and exposition, scholarship and pastoral sensitivity, with an eye alert both to biblical theology and to the contemporary relevance of the Bible.

While Today's New International Version is generally the translation of choice for the English text, Pillar authors base their exposition on the Greek New Testament. They are deeply committed to a fresh wrestling with the biblical text, using every means at their disposal to "loosen the Bible from its pages" to help readers understand what the text says and how to apply it to life today.


Reviews

"Yarbrough's commentary matches the goal of the Pillar series. He writes with clear theological interest and directs his comments to practical, pastoral issues — as the Pastoral Letters themselves do. Those who have followed this series undoubtedly will find this work a useful addition." — Mark A. Seifrid, Concordia Seminary.
Robert W. Yarbrough is professor of New Testament at Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, coeditor of the Baker Exegetical New Testament Commentary series, and coauthor of the widely used textbook Encountering the New Testament.
