The Letter to the Ephesians

Peter O'Brien applies his careful and probing exegesis to the text of Ephesians, first treating the background issues of authorship, audience, purpose, message, and contents, then providing a rich verse-by-verse exposition of the text. Using the fruits of recent biblical research and drawing from his extensive experience as a teacher, missionary, and pastor, O'Brien discusses in fresh and edifying detail the most significant emphases of Ephesians: its broad sweep of the divine purposes, its grand themes and emphasis on unity, truth, and love, and its profound concern that God's people should live as his new humanity in Christ.
