Andrew Mbuvi on Jude & 2 Peter

For those of you who dare to read, study, teach, and preach from the General Epistles, the latest installment in the NCCS is Andrew M. Mbuvi, Jude and 2 Peter (NCCS; Eugene, OR: Cascade, 2015).

This is a great volume, written by an African scholar (now teaching at Shaw University), with a fresh translation, making great use of historical backgrounds (esp. drawing on Phil Harland’s work on Greco-Roman associations), sensible exegesis, and the sections on Fusing the Horizons draw on Andrew’s own experiences of living in Africa. I really do recommend getting hold of this book or at least making sure you have a copy for your library.
