"For anyone who wants to know what the Bible says about the Holy Spirit, this is the book to read! A wealth of leading biblical scholars and theologians, each of whom has a personal engagement with the subject matter, examines the entirety of the (Protestant) biblical canon, helping the reader discover how the biblical texts contribute to a contemporary understanding of the Holy Spirit. Whatever books you choose to read about this vital area of Christian theology, make sure this is one of them."
--Glenn M. Balfour, Principal, Mattersey Hall Christian College, Doncaster
"Pentecost was not the debut of the Holy Spirit. In this broad yet sensitive sweep across the Bible, a team of international scholars shows that from eternity the Spirit has been an active member of the Godhead . . . In a stream of developing themes, this book offers the reader a unique opportunity to explore the generosity of God seen in the life-giving and resurrecting power of his Spirit in the pages of the Bible--and beyond!"
--Graham H. Twelftree, Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, Regent University, USA
"A remarkable array of scholars assembles here to write a remarkable book that covers most comprehensively the theology of the Spirit from Genesis to Revelation. This collection is focused, coherent, and nonpartisan. Essential reading for every student of the Bible."
--Allan H. Anderson, Professor of Mission and Pentecostal Studies, University of Birmingham
