"Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from the twentieth century to the first century. But they leave us there, assuming that we can somehow make the return journey on our own. In other words, they focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss its contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable--but the job is only half done! The NIV Application Commentary Series helps us with both halves of ..."

argue that this is a misunderstanding of wisdom, where “the beginning of wisdom
is the fear of the Lord,” and it is not uncommon to appeal to revelation as a source
of true wisdom. However, Joseph's wisdom is ..."
