Quotes by John Byron (?)

“for Paul the gospel was more than an announcement; it was a theological and historical connection to the Story of Israel that finds its completion in Jesus.”
― John Byron, 1 and 2 Thessalonians

“The “feel” of this letter is that of the reassured voice of a parent on the end of a phone when they are finally able to speak to that son or daughter who has been missing in a city recently struck by an earthquake or some other disaster. It betrays the mind of a person who has tried to remain confident that everything was “okay,” yet battled doubts.”
― John Byron, 1 and 2 Thessalonians

“The Hebrew was called to walk, as it were, backwards into the future. Disciplined remembrance is institutionalized in biblical faith because we are called to interpret our present circumstance in light of God’s known faithfulness in the past.”
― John Byron, 1 and 2 Thessalonians
