The Best Commentary on the Epistles of John
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The late, D. Edmund Hiebert, has done an excellent work which will profit all pastors, teachers and informed Christian laymen as they study the Johannine epistles. Hiebert, who was Professor of New Testament at Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary, has written a lucid commentary which deals with all aspects of textual, lexical and syntactical difficulties, without sacrificing a clear pastoral tone to it.The only fault that perhaps is in this work, is that Hiebert seems to stumble over 1 John 1. As can be seen, this chapter helps to illustrate Jesus Christ as God (i.e. the Word, cf. John 1:1), and is used to bring people to understand Christ's work in the Test's of Life (as is the theme of 1 John). Beyond that issue, which is minor to say the least), this is an excellent commentary.If you can have only one commentary on the Johannine epistles, let this be the one (Donald W. Burdick's The Letters of John the Apostle, is second best. Unfortunately it is out of print).
