While their tones are diverse, the clarity of their compositions and the power of their voices still reverberate today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReformation commentators found the main themes of these Pauline letters deeply applicable to their circumstances, and volume editor Graham Tomlin urges that they are just as relevant to our own: Philippians overflows with thanksgiving in the midst of persecution and trials; Colossians defends the superiority of Jesus as Lord over all principalities and powers. For the Reformers as well as for Paul, all goodness and grace flows from Christ in whom \"all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell\" (Col 1:19), the Son who \"made himself nothing\" (Phil 2:7) in order to bring many daughters and sons to glory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume assembles a diverse chorus spanning place, time, and confessional differences: from Italian Reform-minded Catholic Gasparo Contarini and German Lutheran Martin Chemnitz, to Dutch Anabaptist Menno Simons, to French Reformed Theodore Beza and English Puritan Richard Sibbes. Scholars and pastors alike will find many fruitful insights from these and a number of other significant figures--most of whom enjoy fresh translations from the original, many for the first time in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGraham Tomlin (Ph.D., Exeter University) is dean of St. Mellitus College, London.
