James R. Edwards's teaching career included teaching Bible and theology at two Presbyterian-related colleges for forty years, during which time he authored five books for Eerdmans, one of which, Is Jesus the Only Savior?, was awarded the 2006 Christianity Today Book of the Year in Apologetics. He is currently completing a major commentary on Genesis, also scheduled for publication by Eerdmans.
Southwestern Journal of Theology
"The present volume should have broad appeal to lay persons,
ministers, and scholars as it fits within Pillar's purpose of
exacting, accurate exegesis without being overly technical. Yet,
this commentary is not a lightweight: the text and footnotes
reflect both rigorous research and a thorough use of the most
recent Markan scholarship." The Bible Today
"Based on the New International Version of the Bible and often
making reference to the nuance of the Greek original, the
commentary provides the reader with a clear, well-informed, and
thoughtful interpretation of Mark's Gospel." Ralph P. Martin
"James Edwards's new, careful study of the earliest Gospel brings
together his interest in and ongoing research regarding Mark's
work. He does so in a way that will have a broad appeal to a wide
audience, including both the academic community and the service of
pastors and teachers. This is an excellent piece of applied
research and rigorous study."
