An exegetical-pastoral commentary, with an accessible and informative style. It provides a pastoral approach that, while still being an academic book, is practical and relevant to our times and, very specifically, to the context of the Latin American church today.
The Apostle Paul's first letter to the Corinthians is one of the most commented books in Scripture. And some of its passages are among the most used and quoted in the entire New Testament: in chapter 11 we find the words regularly spoken in the celebration of the Eucharist or Holy Communion: "For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, 'Take, eat; this is my body which is for you...'” (1 Cor. 11:23-29); in chapter 13, those used in most weddings: "If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal..." (1 Cor. 13:1-8).
