Besides the Bible, John Bunyan preferred Luther's classic commentary on Galatians "before all books I have ever seen." Prized for its penetrating insights into Luther's theology, this volume brings to light the depths of Paul's meaning like no other commentary. Luther's Commentary on Galatians is a timeless exposition of Paul's central thought in Galatians: "The just shall live by faith." All readers will benefit from Luther's doctrinally sound, verse-by-verse exposition. Originally written in Latin, Luther's Commentary on Galatians is here translated into English by Rev. Erasmus Middleton. Martin Luther (1483-1546) left his comfortable upbringing to become a Roman Catholic monk and later a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg in Saxony. His study and teaching of the Greek text of the New Testament represent the beginnings of modern textual study, and his widely disseminated writings sparked the Protestant Reformation in Europe. Other works by Luther include Commentary on Romans and Commentary on First and Second Peter and Jude.

"No one explains the significance of the Levitical offerings (in relation to Calvary) as well as Jukes does here....Suddenly ...it bursts into life with several superb chapters which are practically essential to the study of Leviticus."- Peter M.Masters, Pastor, Metropolitan Tabernacle"A very condensed, instructive, refreshing book. It will open up new trains of thought to those unversed in the teaching of the types." -Charles H.Spurgeon in "Commenting and Commentaries "

"Moishe Rosen's career as a missionary to the Jewish people and mentor to many has been characterized as cutting edge, creative, controversial, and consequential . . . . His vision for Jewish missions has always been larger than just the organization he founded. Moishe Rosen is an innovator of methods and strategies in Jewish evangelism and an appreciator and empowerer whose gifts have been used to lift the Lord high." -From the Tribute by Susan Perlman In tribute to this influential leader, Jews and the Gospel at the End of History combines the insights of world-class theologians, exegetes, and historians to address Jewish, Messianic Jewish, and Christian issues, from evangelism to ethics to eschatology. Part 1 begins with a study of the biblical emphasis on Jewish evangelism in the Bible, looking at God's concern and love for his people. Part 2 illuminates the historical, philosophical and scriptural interplay between ethics, missions, and biblical law. Part 3 unfolds the plan of God, the end times, and the Second Advent. The trajectory of this book moves from instruction to hope-both enlightening and inspiring those in ministry to Jewish people and serving as a fitting tribute to Moishe Rosen, founder of Jews for Jesus.

Seventy-five percent of American churches have an attendance of less than 150, yet they often find themselves in the shadow of a few mega-churches with boundless entrepreneurial skills and ministry resources. When the pastors of the typically-sized church attend church growth and leadership conferences, they can easily come away discouraged, disillusioned, and finding little help to impact their ministries. Glenn Daman is an experienced small church pastor and ministry director who knows that effectiveness is not determined by numbers, programs, and buildings. Instead it is defined by faithful service that results in transformed lives--one person at a time. He offers several keys to effective church ministry--no matter the number of members--including: Understanding the cultures of the community and the church Developing a theological foundation Learning to love God and love others Developing a mission of reaching, teaching, and recruiting Uniting the Body through vision Designed for pastors and lay leadership to work through together, Shepherding the Small Church includes chapter-by-chapter suggestions for implementation as well as several appendices of helpful assessment tools. It is an indispensable source of advice and encouragement for the pastor of the majority of American churches. Glenn Daman (D.Min., Trinity Evangelical Divinity School; M.A. in New Testament Studies and M.A. in Old Testament Studies, Western Seminary) serves as Director for Small Church Health, Western Seminary. He also ministers as senior pastor of Cascade Locks Community Church in Cascade Locks, Oregon, and First Baptist Church in Stevenson, Washington.
