Part of the Westminster Bible Companion Series, this volume offers an exposition of the text based on the NRSV. Long sees the theological key as the great commission, and seeks to apply the text to contemporary disciples of Jesus. It is clearly presented without detailed academic footnotes or debates, yet attempts to place the narrative in its historical and biblical context.
