Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. The Gospel of Luke: New International Commentary on the New Testament [NICNT]

The Gospel of Luke [NICNT] presents a comprehensive presentation of the third gospel that eloquently balances exegetical, social-scientific, and theological matters. Green is especially adept at unpacking Luke's overall message against its historical background, while also understanding Luke within its broader context of Acts. As such, Green spends much time analyzing the literary and narrative structure of Luke. This award-winning commentary has served the church well in its first decade and promises to do so for many years to come.

Scholarly and practical. Gives insight into understanding cultural elements that affect proper understanding, interpretation, and application. Useful to the old preacher to the new Sunday School teacher.

Sorry, I forgot to enter the rating...five stars easily - one of the best on Luke out there - comparable to Bock's. Good balance between technical and pastoral.

Green provided me with a number of good thoughts for a Bible study on a passage in Luke. He is a worthy contributor to a fine set of commentaries.

A fresh approach to the gospel of Luke, Green's commentary was very insightful and helpful in my understanding of the socio-religio-politico environment of Jesus' day. He brought out details of the gospel that I had not seen before, such as Jesus' condemnation of the elite, the powerful, and those that thought themselves better than the "sinners" that Jesus came to save. An excellent commentary if you are looking for help in understanding the factors that Jesus had to deal with. I highly recommend it!
