In A.D. 49, Paul traveled to Thessalonica, a major city in northern Greece, to preach the gospel. A small group of manual laborers responded positively to his message, resulting in the formation of a church. After spending less than three months with his converts, Paul left the city for southern Greece, ending up in Corinth, from where he wrote two letters to the Thessalonians four months or so after he had left them. These epistles are particularly valuable because they reveal the concerns of Christians new to the faith and Paul's pastoral care as he guides them. Abraham J. Malherbe vividly describes the social, cultural, religious, and philosophical contexts in which the Thessalonians lived, enabling us to better understand Paul's missives. Detailed introductions to the letters, a new translation, and a lively, enlightening commentary make this an indispensable volume for scholar and layperson alike.

Written by a rather conservative scholor, "Letters to the Thessalonians" is a must read for all students of the Bible. Malherbe has spared no resource in his pursuit of truth in this difficult letter of Paul. He explores such subjects as the "Epistolary Plural" used by Paul as well as discuss the meaning of "The man of Sin" and other theological loaded words. A great tool that should be used by all students of the Scriptures.
