Biblical Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Biblical Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1
The general character and merits of Olshausen's Commentary on the New Testament are too well known both abroad and at home to need being set forth in detail. In its combination Of exact philo logical learning, careful tracing of the logical connexion and full unfolding of the thought, and hearty sympathy with the spirit of the sacred writings, it stands almost alone, having nothing fully corresponding to it in our own or any language. This union of rare and high excellences makes it almost equally valuable to the scholar, and the unlearned but intelligent student of the Scriptures. The latter finds the richest veins of thought Opened, and Scripture truth unfolded in its depth and spirituality while the former finds the leading critical and philological points discussed, briefly indeed, but with a judgment and accuracy which furnish the best guarantee for the soundness of the rich doctrinal and practical teachings that are based upon them. A striking feature and excellence of the Com mentary, is its clear and constant recognition of the organic unity of the entire Scriptures, and hence its constant illustration of the New Testament from the Old. Beyond, perhaps, the majority of commentators, Olshausen has traced the gradual unfolding of the divine revelation through its successive stages. He sees the New Testament rooted in the Old, the Old reaching its consummation in the New and he is eminently felicitous in employing the beautiful and blended lights which the two grand divisions of the sacred vol ume reciprocally cast upon each other.
