Looks like it will be good.
I wonder if they are going to add newer volumes to this series (soon). I see Galatians came out in April.
Nice to be able to sample another series. Thanks, Logos.
Thanks!
I also noted the the added $1.00 ... Logos/Faithlife did you really have to raise the price?
I noted the price too Lee - I bought 6 copies in case it goes up again ;-)
I didn't have either of these. Thanks.

I don't understand this comment. As far as I can see all of the responses to date have been positive about these resources on offer.
Very nice indeed! Great series!
Nice deal for certain! Too bad for me that I already own the series.[:(]
Jeremy from Baker Publishing Group here, I wanted to chime in about the series. They books are medium-sized commentaries that focus on larger rhetorical units, not verse-by-verse. They’ve been highly regarded in reviews. Here’s a bit form the series preface:
The name “Paideia” (Greek for “education”) reflects (1) the instructional aim of the series—giving contemporary students a basic grounding in academic New Testament studies by guiding their engagement with New Testament texts; (2) the fact that the New Testament texts as literary unities are shaped by the educational categories and ideas (rhetorical, narratological, etc.) of their ancient writers and readers; and (3) the pedagogical aims of the texts themselves—their central aim being not simply to impart information but to form the theological convictions and moral habits of their readers.
A few more series details are noted below. Let me know if have any questions!
About the Paidia Series:Paideia commentaries explore how New Testament texts form Christian readers by• attending to the ancient narrative and rhetorical strategies the text employs • showing how the text shapes theological convictions and moral habits • commenting on the final, canonical form of each New Testament book • focusing on the cultural, literary, and theological settings of the text • making judicious use of maps, photos, and sidebars in a reader-friendly format
General Editors:Mikeal C. Parsons (Baylor University)Charles H. Talbert (Baylor University)Bruce W. Longenecker (Baylor University)
Editorial Board:†Paul J. Achtemeier (emeritus, Union Theological Seminary in Virginia)Loveday Alexander (University of Sheffield)C. Clifton Black (Princeton Theological Seminary)Susan R. Garrett (Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary)Francis J. Moloney, SDB (Salesian Province of Australia)
Praise for the Paideia series:“The Paideia Commentary series has established itself as a solid series of concise works that focus on the final form of the biblical text, highlighting narrative flow, rhetorical devices and structure, and commenting particularly on relevant historical background and theological significance.”—Craig L. Blomberg, Denver Journal
“The Paideia series is designed for graduate students who want to explore the New Testament in depth, appreciating the original context of the biblical book and the range of its contemporary meaning.”—Donald Senior, CP, The Bible Today
“[I] continue to be impressed by the contributors’ skill in combining academic rigor with accessibility. . . . The [series] authors . . . combine historical and linguistic analysis with theological reflection, which makes these commentaries useful for those interested in bridging the gap between the ancient world and contemporary Christianity (seminarians, clergy). . . . Frequent inserts with asides [offer] additional explanations or attempts to relate ancient texts to contemporary issues.”—Michael Gilmour, Catholic Biblical Quarterly
