To make Christmas easier for the various parts of my family I started an Amazon wishlist years ago. This year, it seemed to be used by more and more people in the family. Most of them had things to say about the amount and type of reading that was on my list, but I think my sister's thought takes the cake:
Mom..the funny thing is this isn't just for school, this is his leisure reading!!!
I will say that building a good library on things your are interested is is important, and part of that is putting resources in that you don't necessarily agree with. I am working on a post for my main blog about how to review commentaries for personal use, it should be up in the next few days.
But here is what I added to my Revelation library this Christmas through the graciousness of my family.



Nice acquisitions! I got Gregg's parallel commentary for Valentine's Day a few years back and read through it the other year. Absolutely excellent volume.
This year among the books I got were A Reader in Contemporary Philosophical Theology and Which Trinity? Whose Monotheism?: Philosophical and Systematic Theologians on the Metaphysics of Trinitarian Theology, so that should keep me occupied for a little while.

I am excited about the parallel commentary, I think it will be a great quick reference. I have seen "which Trinity" before, and it looks really interesting.
