Ephesians 4–6 (Anchor Yale Bible Commentary | AYBC)

by Markus Barth

Publisher:

Yale University Press

, 2008

Overview

In this volume Markus Barth has followed the structure of Ephesians: upon the praise of God (chapters 1–3) are based the admonitions (chapters 4–6). But just as the epistle is an integral whole, so is the author’s commentary. Through his special understanding and love of the apostle Paul, Markus Barth reopens to modern man the ancient message of love, worship and joy.
