The Book of the Acts (NICNT)

The original Acts volume for this series was first published in 1954. F.F. Bruce undertook a chapter-by-chapter revision and expansion of his book. It reflects both his deepened understanding from years of further study, and the best elements of other modern works on Luke-Acts. This new edition uses Bruce's own fresh translation of the Greek text.
