Books

• Hebrews, Christ, and the Law: the Theology of the Mosaic Law in Hebrews 7:1-10:18. Paternoster Biblical Monograph Series. Carlisle, England: Paternoster, (forthcoming, 2008). This monograph is the published version of Dr. Joslin’s dissertation.
• Mounce’s Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words. Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2006. Dr. Joslin contributed 35 articles to this dictionary of Old and New Testament words. It is based on the NIV translation, though it’s still servicable with the King James Version. Zondervan is hoping that it will replace the old but popular Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words, which was based on the King James translation.
