Summary "The Expositor's Bible: The Epistles of St. Paul to the Colossians and Philemon" by Alexander Maclaren is a theological exposition written in the early 20th century. This scholarly work focuses on an in-depth analysis of two significant epistles from the New Testament, exploring the teachings and implications of Paul's letters to the early Christian communities in Colossae and Philemon. The text likely aims to address contemporary issues in faith while providing insights into the character and message of Jesus Christ. The opening of the book sets the stage for a thorough examination of the Apostle Paul's epistles to the Colossians and Philemon, commencing with a discussion of Paul's identity and authority as an apostle. It elaborates on the circumstances surrounding his imprisonment in Rome and the concerns he holds for the Colossian church, particularly regarding the emerging heretical teachings that threaten their faith. The author emphasizes the centrality of Christ as the mediator and the source of salvation, contrasting the pure doctrine of Christian faith with the emerging errors stemming from a mix of Jewish ritualism and Eastern mysticism. The beginning portion serves not only as an introduction to the text but also as an enticement to further explore the foundational beliefs of Christianity as expressed by Paul in his letters.
