Description

clear but profound statement of the essential message of Christianity, the Epistle to the Romans has had a major influence both on great minds and on humble believers throughout the history of the church. Christians have found this epistle especially significant for its discussions of universal sinfulness, the meaning of the death of Jesus, the place of faith, the permanent significance of Abraham, the place of the Jews in God's plan, and other great doctrines. In this commentary noted biblical scholar Leon Morris takes a fresh look at the many problems posed by Romans and helps contemporary readers understand the complexities of faith and interpretation associated with the epistle.

In his introduction Morris deals with matters of authorship, destination, date occasion, and contents in a relatively brief but helpful way. The commentary proper consists of a careful verse-by-verse exposition of the meaning of the text plus full and informative footnotes. While first of all exegetical, the commentary does concern itself with critical questions, especially in the footnotes and Additional Notes. Here also the reader will find considerable interaction with the immense body of literature on Romans, but Morris's approach to the study of the epistle remains clearly his own.

The relevance of Romans for modern reders is as great as it has ever been for any earlier generation, says Morris, and we neglect it to our peril. This careful and thorough exposition of the epistle will help readers better understand one of the greatest, most comprehensive and spiritually uplifting Christian writings.
