"Christians may not have shared the details of the particular situation of the Roman followers of Jesus, but they have shared for centuries the concern about what faith means for life, and they have turned to Paul to understand what it means to be faithful to our faithful God."
from the introduction

For centuries, the apostle Paul's reflections in the book of Romans have shaped Christian thinking about the gospel of Jesus Christ and how we can be faithful to the gospel. Key theologians including Augustine, Luther, Wesley, and Barth have wrestled with Romans and listened to it, understanding it in relation to questions of their own times. In her theological commentary, Sarah Heaner Lancaster helps us hear Romans anew for today. She considers major elements such as the old and new perspectives on Paul, justification, the relation of Jews and Christians, Empire, and disagreements in the church. Lancaster helps us recognize the importance of the letter during the time it was written, as well as its ongoing meanings now. Paul's insights go beyond the pragmatic to the theological, which gives Romans its enduring significance and ongoing value. Lancaster's excellent commentary helps us for preaching, teaching, and worship to hear Paul's message afresh and to be strengthened and challenged in our Christian faith.

Matt N.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very in depth commentary of Romans
Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2023
Verified Purchase
This is a very in depth commentary on the epistle of Romans. While I am still going through the book right now for my class, I did notice that there is an error in the section that goes to the end of Romans 4, it shows going through verse 25, even though Romans 4 only has 21 verses.

1.0 out of 5 stars Major publishing problem: Wrong text/correct cover
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2022
Verified Purchase
Second time over a period of months this has happened with a WJK Commentary from this series. I received what looks like the correct book, but the content does not match the cover. In this case Lancaster's, Romans Commentary was really the Book of Acts of the Apostles.

The first time this occurred the Belief Commentary on Matthew contained the contents of the Interpretation series on the Gospel of Luke.
