In his first letter to the church in Corinth, Paul writes, "I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures" (1 Cor 15:3-4 ESV). Reflecting on Paul's summary of the gospel, sixteenth-century biblical commentator, theologian, and Lutheran pastor Tilemann Hesshus wrote, "The central tenet and foundation of our entire religion is that our Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again for our justification. All of our comfort, salvation and hope rest upon this foundation. From this is derived that greatest comfort concerning the resurrection of the dead and the future life of eternal glory." Throughout the church's history, Christians have turned to the epistles of the Apostle Paul in order to understand the essentials of the Christian faith, learn from the challenges faced by early Christians, and discern how to navigate the complexities of following Christ. Among those who gained wisdom from Paul were the Protestant Reformers, who found inspiration and instruction about how to lead the church of their day during a time of significant theological debate, ecclesiastical reform, and spiritual renewal. In this volume of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture, Scott Manetsch guides readers through a diversity of Reformation-era commentary on the first of Paul's letters to the Corinthians. Within this volume, readers will encounter familiar voices and discover lesser-known figures from a variety of theological traditions, including Lutherans, Reformed, Radicals, Anglicans, and Roman Catholics. Drawing on a variety of resources―including commentaries, sermons, treatises, and confessions―much of which appears here for the first time in English, it provides resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to better understand the depth and breadth of Reformation commentary, and helps all Christians cling to the things of first importance.

The Geeky Calvinist
5.0 out of 5 stars A Most Excellent Commentary on Scripture
Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2017
God’s inspired, inherent, and infallible Word is something that we must study and interpret.  Yet, during the Middle Ages the exegesis of Holy Scripture became lax, yet when the Protestant Reformation began it brought about a resurgence in exegesis.  This exegesis came from that of Reformers such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, Thomas Cromwell, and many others. To read all of the works of these excellent expositors would have previously necessitated you to purchase thousands of dollars in commentaries and treatise works, just to get their theological interpretation of a few specific passages. Furthermore some of these works are not only expensive, and cumbersome but hard to find. Thankfully this is no longer the case.

Recently IVP Academic has published a new series of commentaries called the Reformation Commentary on Scripture. This commentary series edited by Timothy George gathers together a variety of reformation era works concentrated around a specific book of the Holy Scripture. This work is an excellently produced commentary on Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians.  As series editor George has again outdone himself. With this volume he has enlisted the aid Scott M. Manetsch, to edit this specific commentary, who brought together some of the finsest works of the entire span of the Reformation era. It is a wonderful compilation in which the most notable theological insights into 1st Corinthians are on full display.

As with all commentaries in the Reformation Commentary on Scripture series, the introductory matters are largely kept to a minimum and while there is no verse by verse exposition, the section by section approach is still a worthwhile technique containing excerpts from famous works by different Reformation era scholars.  That is why I recommend this text to any pastor, scholar, or laymen as a teaching aid.

This book was provided to me free of charge from IVP Academic in exchange for an unbiased, honest review.
