<p>Stephen H. Levinsohn is by no means the only SIL International member deserving recognition for significant contributions to the field of biblical studies; all too frequently such work goes unrecognized, even if it is appreciated in some quarters. The goal of this volume is to see that at least in Stephen's case, his work receives the commendation that it deserves. Each of the contributors to this volume has had their ideas challenged or influenced by Levinsohn's work, and each counts it an honor to contribute to a volume honoring him. The caliber of these scholars should dispel any doubts about why we're honoring Stephen's work in this Festschrift; the list of contributors speaks for itself. If you have been wondering exactly what discourse studies has to offer to biblical interpretation, I commend these articles to you as evidence of the dividends that are in store for those who invest the time and effort to enter this field.</p>

The High Definition Commentary series is practical and accessible. Each volume combines analysis of the biblical book's plot twists, shocking moments, and climax with professional graphics to offer a Bible commentary in high definition. In High Definition Commentary: Philippians, Dr. Steven Runge leverages his linguistic knowledge to explain how Paul helped the Philippian church deal with interpersonal conflicts and grow in their relationship with God. Runge traces the linguistic and literary clues that identify each passage's big ideas. Using jargon-free exposition, he walks you through Philippians' flow and development. Personal illustrations and stories help you understand what each concept looks like in practice. Then, the custom artwork brings it all together, helping make Paul's message applicable and memorable. The result: a commentary that perfectly blends a linguist's under- standing of the Bible with passion, application, and art.Key FeaturesFully customized graphics perfect for teaching2-3 images for each Scripture sectionExpositional commentary based on discourse analysisPraise for Steven RungeSteven Runge has made a valuable contribution to the revolution [in discourse linguistics] by his insightful analysis of each New Testament book in his Discourse Grammar of the Greek New Testament. Now he has taken the next step and provided a theoretical base for his applications in Discourse Grammar of the Greek New Testament. . . . I commend his pioneering work for serious consideration by all New Testament students and scholars. . . . I have always been interested in any type of analysis that will help me understand the New Testament better. Discourse Grammar of the Greek New Testament has helped me to do just that.—Dr. William Varner, Professor of Greek Exegesis, The Masters College
