Plot

Here, as in the other titles in this series, is Dr. Barclay's own translation of the day's study together with his enlightening commentary. Written by Paul in prison at Rome, the letter to the Philippians is theologically concerned with the real identification of Jesus both with God and with humanity. The letter to the Colossians combats heretical Gnostic teachings, declaring that God did create the world and that his Son, Jesus Christ, was his instrument in creation. The two letters to the Thessalonians show the apostle dealing with day to day problems of a stragtegic young city church.
