Product Description

Divisions, immorality, marital strife, spiritual gifts, money, wisdom, folly, and holiness—these may have been Corinthian problems first, but we need Paul's wisdom just as much today. But it can be confusing to read 1 Corinthians on our own. What we need is a guide—someone who can explain what's going on in the world outside the letter and bring to life Paul's words of exhortation. This is what the best preachers do, but you don't have to wait until Sunday's sermon. Encounter the beautiful depth of 1 Corinthians through an enlightening verse-by-verse commentary from Robert R. Hughes that's both straightforward and insightful. You'll gain:

• Important historical and cultural background
• Insights from the original languages
• Help with the difficult passages
• And more!

You don't have to go to seminary to encounter God in exciting, new ways through His Word. Discover how much more enjoyable your personal study will be with understandable, quality Bible commentary for everyday life.
