To What End Exegesis? will provide teachers, pastors, and serious students of the Bible with a robust banquet of New Testament scholarship. 
—Inside the Vineyard
In many ways this collection reflects Fee’s own journey as a biblical scholar. The volume begins with Fee’s early work in textual criticism, turns to studies more strictly exegetical in nature, and concludes with studies more theological in intent. In the course of these studies Fee explores a wide range of concerns for readers and interpreters of the New Testament, including Paul as an early Trinitarian thinker, freedom and obedience according to Paul, New Testament Christology and pneumatology, and much more. These fine studies amply demonstrate Fee’s mastery of the exegetical task and illustrate the goal of exegesis in the service of the believing Christian community.
Certain to be consulted and read frequently, To What End Exegesis? will provide teachers, pastors, and serious students of the Bible with a robust banquet of New Testament scholarship.
Praise for the Print Edition
Fee sets forth this collection of previously published essays and displays his skills as an expert text critic, attentive exegete, and engaging biblical theologian (of a Pauline stamp)…. Such a collection has value in itself as a useful supplementary resource for courses on the theology of the NT and the theology of Paul.
—Religious Studies Review
Clearly, not everyone will agree with all of Fee’s exegeses, but in conclusion I can only affirm that this volume offers a delectable exegetical feast. It will remind readers why Fee is rightly regarded as one of today’s finest New Testament text critics and interpreters of Paul.
—Mark D. Given
To What End Exegesis? would work well as reader for a intermediate to advanced Greek course with highly motivated students seeking to learn the textual, exegetical, and theological arts from a respected master.
