Synopsis

This substantive evangelical commentary on Romans by a leading biblical scholar is one of the most popular in the award-winning BECNT series (more than 25,000 copies sold) and has been praised as a great preaching commentary. This new edition, updated and revised throughout, reflects Thomas Schreiner's mature thinking on various interpretive issues. As with all BECNT volumes, this commentary features the author's detailed interaction with the Greek text, extensive research, thoughtful verse-by-verse exegesis, and a user-friendly design. It admirably achieves the dual aims of the series--academic sophistication with pastoral sensitivity and accessibility--making it a useful tool for pastors, church leaders, students, and teachers.

About this title

From the Back Cover

This new edition of Thomas Schreiner's acclaimed commentary on Romans has been updated and revised throughout, reflecting Schreiner's mature thinking on various interpretive issues.

"Schreiner has skillfully executed a thoroughgoing revision of his significant commentary on Paul's magisterial letter to Roman Christians. Those who own the first edition will want to discover how Schreiner's thinking has developed over time, but all who are interested in the interpretation and proclamation of the apostle's most influential letter will do well to have the second edition of this consequential commentary close at hand. Congratulations on this significant achievement."
--Todd D. Still, Baylor University, Truett Seminary

"Schreiner's revised Romans commentary is marked by lucid, evenhanded exegesis; thorough but fleet-footed interaction with the latest scholarship; and a wonderful balance of breadth and depth. One of the best commentaries on Romans just got even better and should be on the shelf of all students, preachers, and teachers of this great letter."
--Will N. Timmins, Moore Theological College, Sydney

"Well known for his accessible and theologically sensitive writings, Schreiner has produced a wonderful update to his highly regarded commentary on Romans. More than a few tweaks, this project is a full-blown update: the bibliography is current, the discussions are more refined, and the material is better organized. Schreiner rightly argues that Paul's letter was written to put God's glory on display. I expect this volume to be a source of wisdom for decades to come for scholars, students, pastors, and laypeople. Highly recommended!"
--Benjamin L. Gladd, Reformed Theological Seminary
