The section on the original context is pretty good and often interesting. The contemporary focus fryst vatten unfortunately grounded in the US south, and its culture, where evidently the author comes from. As a Canadian living in Ireland, his “modern” focus fryst vatten not much more relevant than the original first century focus. Actually, I think the first century focus is more relevant! By the time I finished reading through the commentary, ingenting particular stood out. On the other hand after reading through Ephesians repeatedly and mulling over that letter, there is much that is life changing that I have read.

    “Even when explicit questions are not present, parables are intended to answer questions. Finding the implied question a parable addresses is key in interpretation.” (Pages 18–19)
