Reese N.T. History - Acts

These commentaries are a great resource for the study of New Testament history and have been adapted in many Bible colleges as a textbook. The Bible notes are excellent and clear, and the numerous special studies bring valuable information to the forefront that seldom makes it into a single volume.

Acts is a history book, written by Luke to complement and continue the record begun in his Gospel.  In Acts, Luke demonstrates how Jesus’ apostles faithfully and obediently put the Great Commission into practice, beginning “in Jerusalem, and then into all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth” (Acts 1:8).  Acts is also indispensable for the introductions it provides to so many of the people encountered elsewhere in the New Testament:  Peter, Paul, Barnabas, Silas, Timothy, Luke, Apollos, Priscilla and Aquila, and others.

• 75% of the New Testament books find their historical backdrop in Acts. 
• If the early church is the pattern and model for us to follow, Acts becomes a How-To manual of sorts. 
• Because of their importance, this commentary includes multiple Special Studies on many of the How-To topics.
