The Scriptures, the Cross and the Power of GodAuthor: Tom (N. T.) Wright |
![]() |
This collection of nine meditations from renowned biblical scholar and Anglican Bishop Tom (N. T.) Wright carries the week from its solemn beginnings to the dramatic conclusion on Good Friday and Easter. "I hope that these addresses," Wright says in his preface, ". . . will contribute both to the enriched understanding, and also to the empowered living out, of the vital and inexhaustible events at the heart of Christian faith." The writings for Palm Sunday through Maundy Thursday morning, as well as the Easter Vigil, focus on texts from the Gospel of Matthew; Maundy Thursday evening, Good Friday, and Easter morning focus on texts from the Gospel of John. The translations of the text are Wright's own, taken from his volumes Matthew for Everyone and John for Everyone in the . . . for Everyone series published by Westminster John Knox Press. Tom (N. T.) Wright is the Bishop of Durham in the Church of England. He is a prolific author and noted New Testament scholar, and he was named by Christianity Today in 1999 as one of the world's top theologians. He has written over thirty books, both at the scholarly level, including Jesus and the Victory of God, The Resurrection of the Son of God, and The Meaning of Jesus, and for a popular audience, including The Meal Jesus Gave Us (WJK) and the . . . for Everyone series of New Testament commentaries. 0.25" H x 7.0" L x 4.25" W (0.2 lbs) 84 pages Publisher: Westminster John Knox Press |
