Von der hinteren Coverseite

"This commentary is full of careful historical exegesis that is especially well informed by the literature, philosophy, and rhetoric of the Greco-Roman world. It is an ideal companion to a detailed study of these still undervalued New Testament books."
--Richard Bauckham, St. Andrews University (emeritus)

"This solid commentary interprets the letters of Jude and 2 Peter in their original historical contexts by engaging relevant contemporary Greco-Roman sources while employing the best practices of current New Testament scholarship. Green ably demonstrates how understanding the sociocultural world of the first century deepens our knowledge of the biblical message. I heartily commend this commentary to those who are interested in an in-depth study of Jude and 2 Peter by a seasoned evangelical scholar."
--Karen H. Jobes, Wheaton College and Graduate School (emerita)

"Green reveals himself to be well-informed, clearly in control of a vast amount of detail. . . . This is a fine example of a historical-grammatical commentary, informed by significant knowledge of classical literature and recognition of rhetorical structures. The layout is pleasing and helpful. . . . This reviewer will be happy to have this work on his shelf . . . to be consulted when he is looking at Jude and 2 Peter"
--Peter H. Davids, Review of Biblical Literature

"The commentary makes a significant contribution to our understanding of [Jude and 2 Peter]. . . . It has typically been averred that 2 Peter is testamentary literature. Green's commentary is one of the few works that question this thesis. In my opinion, it begins to overturn the present scholarly consensus. . . . This commentary is one that will encourage scholars to pay close attention to 2 Peter and Jude and to move them from the margins more to the center of the study of the NT."
--David H. Johnson, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
