Editorial Reviews


"
Jesus's Final Week is a clear and concise study of the passion week of the Savior of the world. It is excellently written and will serve well the seasoned scholar or layperson who wants to examine the week leading up to and including the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I personally will take advantage of this fine work."


--Daniel Akin, president, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
"As a seminary student, Dr. Bill Cook was one of my favorite professors. In
Jesus's Final Week you'll understand why. Cook writes with the accuracy of an accomplished New Testament scholar, the clarity of a gifted teacher, and the pastoral application of a seasoned minister. Reading this book will not only afford you a better understanding of Christ's final days, it will deepen your devotion to our Savior."


--Jason Allen, president, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
"No portion of God's Word is more fascinating than those chapters relating the final days detailing the redeeming death and resurrection of Jesus. For two millennia Christians have meditated on these painful yet glorious close-ups of the Savior. I know of no one better suited to lead twenty-first century Christians to examine the central drama of history than Dr. William F. Cook III. As a New Testament scholar, pastor, and devout man of prayer, he presents to the church a volume well-suited both for study and devotion. Ponder, then worship!"


--Ted J. Cabal, professor of philosophy of religion, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
"Too often, we have read about the final week of Jesus so many times that we almost skim it now. The events of that week, though, are so history-changing that we must meditate on them more. This book will help you do that. Dr. Cook carefully walks through that week, writing with the mind of a scholar and the heart of a pastor. You will learn more about the events themselves, consider practical implications and applications of the stories, and come out of each chapter singing a 'hymn of response' Dr. Cook includes. This study is worth leading your entire congregation to do."


--Chuck Lawless, vice president for spiritual formation and ministry centers and Richard & Gina Headrick Chair of World Missions, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
"I have had the privilege to know Dr. Bill Cook for many years now in two different contexts. First, he was my faithful pastor for six years. Second, he was my esteemed colleague at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary for fifteen years. From my unique vantage point, I can say without hesitation that Dr. Cook has the mind of a scholar and the heart of a pastor. Both of those qualities come into full view in his most recent work,
Jesus's Final Week. The reality is that it would be impossible to faithfully preach the four Gospels without being well versed in Jesus's final days and the events leading up to his death, resurrection, post-resurrection appearances, and ascension. With that said, this new work has instantly become my 'go to' source for those final days leading to Jesus's ascension. As I read, my mind and heart were renewed and enthralled with the love and glory of Jesus and his all-sufficient and perfect work of redemption for all who believe. I could offer innumerable quotes, but a couple will suffice: 'When Jesus woke up Thursday morning, he would likely not close his eyes again until he closed them in death on Friday afternoon.' And again, 'Jesus and his disciples departed from the upper room and proceeded to the Garden of Gethsemane to begin the events that would reverse what happened in another garden, Eden.' Hallelujah! What a Savior! It has been said, in so many words: sound teaching instructs believers in what to believe (credenda), what to hope (speranda), and what must be done in response (agenda). It was as if Cook had this three-fold criteria in hand as he wrote. Thank you, Dr. Cook, for stewarding your scholarly and pastoral gifts for the edification of Christ's church. No preacher, teacher, or disciple maker of Jesus Christ should be without this remarkable resource."


--Brian Payne, pastor, Lakeview Baptist Church, Auburn, AL
"The most important event in all of history is the arrival of Jesus on this earth. And the most important week in his life is certainly his last. Bill Cook provides a simple, faithful, thorough, and meditative summary of Jesus's final week. Follow this expert guide as he leads you through the events that guide us toward salvation."


--Patrick Schreiner, associate professor of New Testament and biblical theology, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
