I can't believe you would want a commentary on a desert island.

Sorry, Isaac, it's true. Maybe on second thoughts I'd take the bible, but my thinking was 'if not the bible', otherwise it wouldn't have been a fair competition!

Hi Steven,
That's two comments on this blog about the same general subject in one day! Perhaps I should try to explain my own thoughts on this in a later series, and I would love to hear your thoughts.
Have you read Thiselton's commentary on 1 Cor 15? I found it helpful.
