Acts. By Jaroslav Pelikan. Brazos, 320 pp., $29.99.
Brazos's Theological Commentaries on the Bible, of which this is the first volume, will feature theologians commenting on scripture using ancient Christian sources. The result is a treasure both new and old, more akin to medieval gloss than historical-critical commentary. Yet it is also a resource for preachers, since its format is akin to that of modern commentary. Pelikan, perhaps the greatest living church historian, can't get out of the first chapter of Acts without providing short essays on Christ's postresurrection teaching, the relationship between Israel's and the church's messianic expectation, and Mary as mother of God.
