Reviews
Marshall’s shorter commentary is packed with excellent content. He includes a discussion of the letter’s form, authorship, destination and primary theological themes, followed by passage-by-passage commentary that highlights what the text means for its original hearers and today’s readers.
[Full Review]
Man, what a great little commentary on an important epistle. If you are not reading from Marshall for soteriological reasons, you are making a big mistake. Solid, though provoking and reader friendly. Most greek and interpretative discussions are held within the footnotes to avoid being bogged down. Definitely one of the best commentaries overall that I have read.
This little gem is a thing of beauty. It's concise, accessible, but brings a definite richness to its exegesis. I got the whole set of the IVPNTC, and this volume is perhaps the best in the set.
Simple, easy to read, draws me into the text without the need to explain every detail.
