The Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament series is the go-to resource for pastors and Bible teachers looking for deep but accessible study that equips them to connect the needs of Christians today with the biblical text.

Christians in the first century lived in a world ruled by Rome. The vast size of the Roman Empire meant that it incorporated many different people groups who followed many different religions. Christians were thus often confronted with practices mandated by the local authorities where they lived that went against their faith in Jesus. But even more problematic, they were also often confronted with worldviews and systems of belief that went against their faith.

This was especially true of the believers who lived in the capital city of Rome. So it was that when Paul decided visit the city, he first sent them a letter outlining the key principles and "doctrines" of the Christian faith. Paul explained humans are really like (sinful), what God has done to provide an escape from the consequences of humanity''s sin, and what a lifestyle that goes out of a Christian worldview looks like. Today, we know to know the same! We need to have a deep understanding of what we believe so we know how to respond when faced with other beliefs that go against Christ.

Each study in the NIV Application Commentary Resources series employs a three-step process to help you understand both the historical meaning of a biblical text and its relevance in modern times. The original meaning section reveals the questions and concerns the author was addressing. The past to present section then explains what significance the original audience would have found in the passage and what significance you can find in it today. Finally, the questions that accompany each section will help you specifically apply the author''s words and teachings and find meaning in them for what you are facing in your life.

Lessons:

What does the Bible say about the natural world and its place within God''s purpose?

From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible reveals a God whose creative power and loving care embrace all that exists, from earth and sky and sea to every creature. Yet the significance of the Bible''s extensive teaching about the natural world is easily overlooked by Christians accustomed to focusing only on what the Bible says about God''s interaction with human beings.

In Creation Care, father and son team Douglas and Jonathan Moo invite readers to open their Bibles afresh to explore a comprehensive biblical theology of creation care as well as a careful analysis of the most up-to-date scientific data about the state of our world. Following the contours of the biblical storyline, they uncover answers to questions such as:

Rather than merely offering a response to environmental concerns, Creation Care invites readers into a joyful vision of the world as God''s creation in which they can rediscover who they truly are as creatures called to love and serve the Creator and to delight in all he has made.
