Online Synopsis of Gospel Parallels

I recently stumbled across a very useful site for students working on the Gospels or on the Jesus tradition. The Five Gospels Parallels, by John W. Marshall at the University of Toronto, presents the gospel texts (in English) in parallel vertical columns. The text is divided into pericopes, and for each one Marshall provides links…

How to Get Your Annotations Out of a Kindle Ebook

One of the things I love about reading ebooks is that I can so easily highlight sections and make notes in the margins, without having to scrounge around for a pencil or have my hand cramp trying to draw a straight line on a curved page while lying in bed. The question is, then, how…

Good Journals for New Testament Studies

Here is a list of good journals that I use and recommend for studying the New Testament. These journals fall roughly into two categories: academic and semi-popular. These categories should be taken as a very rough guideline, though, since the level of technicality vs. broad readability will vary a great deal from article to article.…

Good Academic Commentary Series for New Testament Studies

Here is a rough list of commentary series that I recommend for academic interpretation. I am not endorsing the opinions in any particular volume, and I am also not minimizing the value of commentaries that are non-academic. Those are often excellent for personal devotional study and for some small-group studies in your local church. What…

Some Good Commentaries on Each New Testament Book

There are many, many academic commentaries on each book of the New Testament. So it’s no surprise that students often feel bewildered looking at the library shelf and wonder where to start. One excellent resource is A Guide to Biblical Commentaries and Reference Works by John F. Evans (10th edition; Grand Rapids: Zonervan, 2016). If you’re…

Good (and Bad) Reference Works for New Testament Studies

It’s often difficult to tell which encyclopedias and reference works you should rely on for academic biblical studies. There are a lot of “Bible Dictionaries” that are too shallow to be very useful, or that don’t reflect modern scholarship. One helpful tool is A Guide to Biblical Commentaries and Reference Works by John F. Evans (10th…

A Reading List on Paul’s Views of Women

Paul’s instructions about how women should (and shouldn’t) behave in some of his churches continue to drive real and often painful debates about women’s roles in the contemporary church. I’ve gathered here a representative collection of books on the topic and on the broader issue of gender roles. Since I don’t think that Paul’s statements…

Help with Improving Your Writing

Let’s face it–most of us were never taught how to write well. Either we somehow absorbed good style from hours of reading for pleasure, or we managed to get by with a “shotgun” approach: If I throw enough words at the idea some of them will be close enough! For many purposes this really is…
