The Letters to the Corinthians

By William Barclay

Book Overview

Corinth was not only one of the most flourishing commercial centers of the ancient world, but also a symbol of vile debauchery. "In this hotbed of vice," writes William Barclay, "some of the greatest work of Paul was done." In his endearing, simple, and illustrative manner, Barclay shows how the message that Paul communicated to the Corinthians continues to help us who live today in the midst of twenty-first century temptations.

Letters to the Corinthins(New Daily Study Bible)

Arrived in excellent shape and rapidly. As always, Barclay takes the Bible and relates it to the time it was written and then to what it means today. Although written over 50 years ago, his works are still most helpful as people haven't changed much.

Great study tool

I enjoy the barclay study guides, helps me in that it gives a different perspective.
