Vamos a estudiar Efesios

by Sinclair B. Ferguson

Si Romanos es, humanamente hablando, la ms impresionante de las epstolas de Pablo, entonces Efesios probablemente sea la ms elegante. En la doxologa que da comienzo a la epstola, las bendiciones caen en cascada sobre el lector. En sus versculos finales, el olor del campo de batalla se halla fuertemente en el aire y, entremedias del humo de la guerra, vemos a los cristianos, totalmente vestidos de la armadura de la guerra espiritual, an en pie. Desde el comienzo hasta el final. Efesios presenta ante nostros la maravilla de la gracia de Dios, el privilegio de pertenecer a la Iglesia, y el patrn de transformacin de vida que produce el Evangelio.

Reviews

[Bob O'Bannon · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the second commentary I have read in the Banner's "Let's Study" series, and both have served their purpose well. This study of Ephesians is theological, pastoral, and designed for ordinary Christians. The chapters are brief, but Ferguson manages to cover a surprising amount of Biblical text with his efficient economy of words. Use this book for Bible studies, personal devotions and/or sermon preparation.

Very Pastoral. Excellent commentary with typical Fergussen application.

Excellent commentary on one of my favorite books of the Bible to read and reread. Wonderful insight and encouragement.

[Daniel Kim · Rating 5 out of 5]

I highly recommend this book! Sinclair does an awesome job breaking down Paul's letter to the Ephesians such that you can really understand Paul's intent. I read this book with my community group, and we all enjoyed reading and discussing it!

Ferguson is a wonderful illustrator. I enjoyed the book for the pastoral leaning it was written within

[Cyndi Lanier · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved reading this book alongside my Bible Study of Ephesians. I especially loved, "The Armour of God" and the "All Prayer" chapters. This was a very encouraging read. I highly recommend it.

As always Sinclair’s writing is wise and applicable. Written in a warm and grace-full tone yet deeply convicting of our need to follow Christ more closely.

[J.E. Jr. · Rating 5 out of 5]

We used this book for a Sunday School class, and the Elder who taught the class and I read through the book together. It's excellent, like all of the Let's Study... series from Banner of Truth; great for a group or individual study, a class, or just as a guide to Ephesians.

I went through this book with my pastor and I really enjoyed it! It really helped me understand. I highly recommend it to others who struggle with reading the Bible. I'm now starting Let's Study Hebrews...another book in this study series.

[Steve Hazell · Rating 4 out of 5]

A solid brief study through the book of Ephesians. If you are wanting a super in depth look you need to pair this with a more scholarly commentary, but that is is no way a shot at Ferguson's study. He is still scholarly, but takes a more lay persons approach to his presentation. Great book!

[Douglas Hayes · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a good and insightful little commentary that is accessible to laymen. Ferguson has a good grasp on the importance of union with Christ in the gospel message of Paul.

Very good Bible study book.

[Nile · Rating 5 out of 5]

I very much enjoyed this commentary on the book of Ephesians. I used it to lead our men's study at the church. We did a six week study which was a bit rushed but manageable. I'd highly recommend this commentary for a good balance of intellectual study and practical application. Ferguson, like Paul, pulls no punches and you will finish this in awe of God's awesome power and convicted in many areas.
