Description

A completely new commentary in twelve volumes. The New Interpreter's Bible continues the tradition established by its predecessor, the Interpreter's Bible, as an invaluable tool for everyone who studies, preaches, and teaches scripture -- including Bible scholars, pastors, Sunday school and Bible school teachers, and interested laypeople. Each volume of the New Interpreter's Bible includes two complete translations of selected books of the Bible, commentary, and reflections. The New show more Interpreter's Bible incorporates several other key strengths: the exegetical commentary and the theological reflections for each biblical book are written by one individual, ensuring consistency of perspective; the ecumenical roster of contributors includes top scholars and emerging new voices; the biblical text is divided into coherent and manageable units, such as pericopes, which allows discussion of important issues that are overlooked in a verse-by-verse treatment. - Jacket. show less

The exegetical resource no pastor should be without. Anchor Bible may be an older, more venerable series, but New Interpreters has a better stable of scholars to contribute to it.

That said, only having this as a source of exegesis would be quite foolish, because no method of exegesis is going to tell you everything, nor should logically be expected to do so. For this reason, it is rated well, but not perfectly.

These are phenomenal resources for personal study and for preaching.
