One of the major sources of inspiration for the Reformation, it was also one of the writings most frequently turned to by the Fathers, as the Church sought to ...

Romans (IVP New Testament Commentary Series) 2 reviews Grant R. Osborne
InterVarsity Press, 2004
Concise and articulate
+ From the cover:
I bought this commentary because Osborne is an Arminian and I'm doing a presentation on Romans 9 (I'm a student at Moody Bible Institute). His explanation of Romans 9 is extremely well articulated and expressed excellently. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it isn't technical ...

Epistle to the Galatians (New International Greek Testament Commentary) 3 reviews Frederick Fyvie Bruce
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1982
Another excellent work by F.F. Bruce
+ Great resource for exegetical Greek syntax and background + F. F. Bruce knocks it out of the park again!
Excellent commentary. Clear writing. The overall theme and the details are both well expounded throughout. The only small drawback is the occasions when Greek words or phrases are used without definitions, but that should not stop someone from buying this book. Bruce is an excellent author.

I've read part way through this book at this point, reading it together with a friend. It provides plenty material for discussion. It seems to me to be aimed at a seminary audience, as there are some theological and Greek grammatical terms used, but not fully explained. It's not quick reading, but ...
