2 Peter & Jude

Summary

We find Michael Green gives us a brisk, sensible guide through two short letters that confront false teaching and spiritual drift. He keeps us close to the text, draws out the warnings and the comforts, and helps us feel the pastoral weight of apostolic truth.

The Tyndale series aims for clarity, and this volume does that well. We are helped to understand difficult phrases, follow the logic of the argument, and see how these letters call the church to holiness and perseverance.

Why Should I Own This Commentary?

We should own this commentary when we need help preaching warning passages without panic or harshness. Green shows how the apostles warn because they love, and how the gospel produces both vigilance and assurance.

We also benefit from his attention to biblical theology. The Old Testament echoes in Jude and the reminders in 2 Peter matter, and he helps us preach them as part of the one saving story.

For busy preparation, it is a very usable volume, clear, pointed, and often searching in the best way.

Closing Recommendation

We recommend this as a strong mid level commentary for preaching and teaching 2 Peter and Jude. It helps us speak plainly about error, judgment, and perseverance, while still holding out the mercy that keeps God’s people to the end.
