. . . undertaken to provide earnest students of the New
Testament with an exposition that is thorough and abreast of modern scholarship
and at the same time loyal to the Scriptures as the infallible Word of God.
This statement reflects the underlying purpose of The New International
Commentary on the New Testament. Begun in the late 1940s by an international
team of New Testament scholars, the NICNT series has become recognized by
pastors, students, and scholars alike as a critical yet orthodox commentary
marked by solid biblical scholarship within the evangelical Protestant
tradition.
While based on a thorough study of the Greek text, the commentary
introductions and expositions contain a minimum of Greek references. The NICNT
authors evaluate significant textual problems and take into account the most
important exegetical literature. More technical aspects such as grammatical,
textual, and historical problems are dealt with in footnotes, special notes,
and appendixes.
Under the general editorship of three outstanding New Testament scholars
first Ned Stonehouse (Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia),
then F. F. Bruce (University of Manchester, England),
and now Gordon D. Fee (Regent College,
Vancouver, British Columbia)
the NICNT series has continued to develop over the years. In order to keep
the commentary new and conversant with contemporary scholarship, the NICNT
volumes have been and will be revised or replaced as necessary.
The newer NICNT volumes in particular take into account the role of recent
rhetorical and sociological inquiry in elucidating the meaning of the text, and
they also exhibit concern for the theology and application of the text. As the
NICNT series is ever brought up to date, it will continue to find ongoing
usefulness as an established guide to the New Testament text.
