Heavenlies in Ephesians

M. Jeff Brannon took his PhD from New College, University of Edinburgh, UK.

Undoubtedly this book represents the most comprehensive study of the expression ‘in the heavenlies’ and advances modern scholarship on Ephesians. It also provides many ideas for further discussion. Brannon’s argument is coherent, well structured, and clearly presented.
