Congratulations to Dr. David Garland on the publication (today! March 4, 2025) of his brand new New Word Biblical Themes volume (volume 8). I have the blessed gift of being able to choose the contributors (in my role as series editor). Garland was easily my first choice for 2 Corinthians and it was an absolute delight to edit and read his work. This is a “must-have” resource in my opinion.
David Garland is emeritus faculty at Truett Seminary, Baylor University.
Garland is a widely-respected NT scholar who specializes in Paul, but has written across the New Testament. Here are some of my favorite Garland works.
My favorite 2 Corinthians commentary!
One of my favorite 1 Corinthians commentaries!
A fantastic study of Mark’s theology!
Congrats again to Garland on 2 Corinthians NWBT!
If you are interested in this series, my Galatians volume was published last year.
Garland is great! Have benefitted so much from his other works. Nijay, could I just ask for a little more about the WBC themes series - is it a sorta expanded version of what would often be included in a commentary introduction where themes are summarised? Or are they more akin to 'a biblical theology of Galatians' etc?
