Acts (Asia Bible Commentary) by W. Robert Shade III & Bruce J. Nicholls

This series of commentaries on all the books of the Old and New Testament is designed to enable readers to understand the Scriptures in their own context, and to interpret and apply them to the plurality of Asian cultures in which they live and work.

The series is designed for use by pastors in their expository ministry of preaching, teaching and counseling, by teachers and students in their theological studies, and by men and women who lead small groups in churches and homes.
