Jubilees: The Hermeneia Translation
The book of Jubilees (2nd century BCE) retraces the book of Genesis and parts of Exodus and is one of the earliest sustained commentaries on the narratives presented in those texts. The translation is drawn from the author's monumental two-volume Hermeneia commentary and takes into account all of the textual data now available. The translation is accompanied by carefully selected notes that illuminate the text and is ideal for classroom use.

Called into the Mission of God: A Missional Reading of Paul's Thessalonian Correspondence
Roji George argues that Paul's primary interest was neither doctrinal teaching nor the articulation of an anti-imperial discourse. Instead, he contends that amidst the many problems that faced the Thessalonian community--eschatological fears, ethical difficulties, and persecution from outside groups--Paul brought primarily a missional concern to impart ethical exhortation and eschatological teaching. The book will appeal to scholars, teachers, and students grappling with the message of Paul in his time and in ours.
