New Wineskins: A commentary on Luke's gospel

By Jeff Krogstad

Reading the gospel of Luke with this book in hand, you encounter Jesus in a new way. Old assumptions get broken. New ways of seeing Jesus and his kingdom open up. Who is Jesus? What are his priorities? How did his first hearers understand him? Jeff Krogstad leads the reader into these questions through each chapter of Luke. He combines insights from the historical, cultural, and linguistic context of the Bible. At the same time he confronts some of our irresponsible ways of dealing with the gospels. He then connects those insights with our own deepest needs and desires. Twentieth-century religion has left so many people bored. This commentary is especially designed for those who are intrigued by an authentic first-century Jesus. Those who are eager to encounter him will be richly rewarded.
