Just FYI, this will be the last volume. I was hoping they would finish it with a different author but that won’t be happening. RIP
Sorry to hear of the passing of this excellent scholar.

Is this a FL official news? Last I checked they said they were going to try to think of something to finish the entire NT.
Maybe they could ask close scholar authors that were friends with Osbourne to write the rest of the NT books that are missing “In Honor of Grant Osbourne.” Life Application Commentaries NT has a few, I think (e.g. Barton Bruce and Phillip Comfort) 👍😁👌

Mattillo:That is what lexham Press said on Twitter
Oh well, at least Hebrews got finished ✅
As far as I know, we are still exploring a way to finish the NT for this series. I think the tweet was referring to Hebrews as the final volume that Osborne directly worked on and wasn't meant to be an announcement of the end of the series.
That's awesome news! I hope it does get finished. I know you'll do a great job with it if you do go that route :)

I hope it does get finished.
I'm not involved in the series, so I don't know more details. I think the hope is to find a way to finish with an author or authors who can continue in the path that Osborne would have followed for these. I was mainly sharing that I don't think Lexham intentionally made an official announcement that it was done.
