Focused Biblical Scholarship to Teach the Text
Effectively
The Teach the Text Commentary Series gives pastors the
best of biblical scholarship and presents the information needed to move
seamlessly from the meaning of the text to its effective communication. By
keeping the discussion in each carefully selected preaching unit to six pages of
focused commentary, the volumes allow pastors to quickly grasp the most
important information. Each unit of the commentary includes the big idea and key
themes of the passage; sections dedicated to understanding, teaching, and
illustrating the text; and full-color illustrations, maps, and photos.
The Book of Job presents a challenge to the modern preacher and teacher,
as it communicates its message in a way that is unfamiliar to most contemporary
believers. But the issues it addresses--suffering, our response to it, and how
God works in the world--are nevertheless relevant to the church in our day. Job
teaches the surpassing sovereignty, freedom, and wisdom of God and emphasizes
that even though the answers to our questions may remain hidden from us, God can
be trusted. In this commentary, Daniel J. Estes provides carefully organized
guidance for interpreting, teaching, and illustrating the important truths found
in Job.
"Few commentaries help the reader move beyond study to thoughtful
application, and fewer still move beyond application to teaching. That's why I
am thrilled with the Teach the Text Commentary Series from Baker. I highly
recommend it."--George H. Guthrie, Benjamin W. Perry Professor of Bible,
Union University, Jackson, TN
"Teach the Text is the kind of commentary I
have wanted for a long time. It deals with the kinds of questions that busy
pastors have to ask and answer in order to preach the Scriptures every
week."--Haddon Robinson, Harold John Ockenga Professor of Preaching,
Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
"Pastors, communicators, and fellow
Bible teachers, shove some books over and make room on your shelves. The Teach
the Text Commentary Series was specifically envisioned with us in the lens. Here
is the best of biblical scholarship made accessible, applicable, and relevant to
life right here on the hot pavement where we need it most."--Beth Moore,
author and teacher
