Entrusted with the Gospel

In this volume, Andreas Kostenberger, edits many essays that examines and explores historical scholarship on 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus. In their work, much clarification and insight is brought to Paul's controversial theology in these epistles, and several important hermeneutical and exegetical challenges are also highlighted and discussed, including authorship, genre, historical background, and issues surrounding church leadership. See Table of Content for a list of contributors.

This book will serve well any exegesis course on the Pastorals, familiarizing students with the major issues involved, without overwhelming them or while developing their thinking along evangelical lines. The book will also make an excellent supplementary volume for NT Theology courses, or a great read for small groups and/or church study.

Contributors include several scholars who have done previous advanced work on these letters: I. Howard Marshall , Andreas Köstenberger, Terry L. Wilder, F. Alan Tomlinson, Greg Couser, Daniel L. Akin, Ray van Neste, B. Paul Wolfe, Ben Merkle, George Wieland, Thor Madsen, and Chiao Ek Ho.
