"The Gospel According to St. Luke" is a comprehensive and scholarly commentary that provides an in-depth analysis of one of the foundational texts of the New Testament. Authored by Burton Scott Easton, a prominent biblical scholar, this work offers a rigorous examination of the linguistic, historical, and theological dimensions of Luke's narrative. The commentary focuses on the Synoptic tradition, exploring the unique characteristics of the Third Gospel, its literary structure, and its specific depiction of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ.

Easton's approach is characterized by meticulous critical research, aiming to elucidate the meaning of the text for students, theologians, and clergy. By navigating the complexities of source criticism and the historical context of the apostolic age, the book serves as a vital resource for understanding the development of early Christian thought. "The Gospel According to St. Luke" remains a significant contribution to biblical studies, offering valuable insights into the social and religious environment in which the Gospel was composed and its enduring impact on Christian doctrine and interpretation.

First Commentary on Mark: An Annotated Translation
This book is the first English translation of a text that Michael Cahill identifies as the first formal commentary on Mark's Gospel. Thought to have been written by an early seventh-century abbot, the commentary was for almost 1000 years attributed to St. Jerome and as such exercised incalculable influence on subsequent commentary. St. Thomas Aquinas drew on it freely in his <em>Catena Aurea</em>, for example, as did the highly influential Counter-Reformation commentary of Cornelius a Lapide. Renaissance scholarship demoted the work to the pseudepigrapha of Jerome and it clearly lost status as a result. However, the contemporary recovery of interest in the commentary tradition ensures a welcome for the publication of this translation. Irrespective of authorship, the text is important in the history of biblical interpretation--it is the first commentary on Mark, and has had wide influence in the Latin west. It is written in the allegorical style, and attempts to provide an application of the gospel text to the practice of Christian discipleship. It is characterized by the use of other biblical texts, and through the use of bold face and italics in the translation, the reader is able to see the extent of quotation, paraphrase, and allusion. The extensive notes are designed to provide information on source material and on the author's technique. As the first Markan commentary this text holds a unique place in the history of biblical exegesis. This translation will make it available to scholars who do not read Latin, and will serve as a useful introduction to early and medieval Bible commentary, both in format and content.
