Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Roy R. Jeal provides a sociorhetorical interpretation of the grand vision that extends from the realm of God before creation to the new reality and new culture of the life of fullness in Christ. The commentary shows how the range of textures that interweave in the text reveal the dynamic rhetorical argument and force of Colossians. Demands to conform to human traditions rather than to Christ are irrelevant for believers who have been transferred from darkness to the light of the Son of God's kingdom. The rhetoric moves believers to lives of orderly behavior guided by love that contrasts with the uncertainties of Mediterranean existence.
