Spirit and Scripture brings together five studies in Greek and Hebrew exegesis, each addressing a text that has occupied the center of theological debate within Pentecostal and evangelical scholarship. The essays move across the breadth of the New Testament canon: from Paul’s theology of the spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12–14, with its governing triad of Christological criterion, agapē, and communal edification; to the pneumatological specificity of the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit in Matthew 12; to the lexical and canonical case for physical healing in the atonement from 1 Peter 2:24; to a sustained eschatological investigation of one of Revelation’s most contested passages; and finally to a constructive exegetical account of covenant blessing that integrates the full weight of the Pauline and Hebraic witness. Throughout, the method is historical-grammatical — attentive to lexical range, syntactical force, and canonical shape — and the engagement with opposing scholarship is direct and charitable. The Pentecostal tradition is treated not as a conclusion to be defended but as a hermeneutical vantage point from which the biblical texts may be read with fresh precision. Spirit and Scripture is for scholars, pastors, and advanced students of the New Testament who believe that careful attention to the inspired text and openness to the Spirit who breathes through it are not rivals but partners.
