This superb volume in the New International Greek Testament Commentary series provides the most detailed, definitive, and distinctive commentary on 1 Corinthians available in English to date.

One of the world's most respected Christian theologians, Anthony Thiselton here provides in-depth discussion of the language of 1 Corinthians, presents his own careful translation of the Greek, traces the main issue of interpretation form the church fathers to the present, and highlights topics of theological, ethical, and sociohistorical interest today, including ethics and rights, marriage, divorce, and remarriage, headship, gender, prophecy, and many others.

No other commentary on 1 Corinthians embodies the wealth and depth of detail presented in Thiselton's work, which takes account of nearly all scholarly research on 1 Corinthians and incorporates substantial bibliographies throughout . In his commentary Thiselton indeed addresses virtually every question that thoughtful, serious readers - scholars, students, pastors, teachers - may wish to ask of or about the text of 1 Corinthians. His work offers a fresh, comprehensive, and original contribution, to our understanding of this major epistle and its contemporary relevance.
