Fullness and freedom--two aspects of Christian life that we all want to share. Paul wrote about them at length (and depth) in his letter to the Christians at Colossae, where certain new teachers were proclaiming that "mere Christianity" is not enough. There is, they suggested, a fuller experience, a greater liberation, than they had so far enjoyed. But Paul was adamant: all God's fullness is in Christ alone, and only through his complete work are we set free.These are the great objective truths of the faith that Dick Lucas highlights in his exposition, enabling us to see both the riches that are ours in Christ and the irrelevance--even blasphemy--of all would-be improvements on what God has done.

4.0 out of 5 stars I bought it for the Philemon notes
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2012
Verified Purchase
I have some mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand, the quality of the commentary on the text is quite good. It is, of course, British, and now 32 years old (the fact that it is British means the discussion of slavery in Philemon will be different than from an American perspective). But the comments are still worthwhile, and occasionally quite insightful. This would make an excellent reading commentary for individual use or for help in leading a bible study.

On the other hand, I bought this book primarily for the Philemon notes, and I was a bit disappointed. (I suppose I should have read the other reviews!) The notes on Philemon are only eight pages long. There is some good insight in those eight pages, but it is still hard to avoid feeling a bit shortchanged. No doubt Lucas could have delivered significantly more insight that he did. The Philemon notes have a nice devotional quality to them, but if you are looking for help on the issues of the book, I would look elsewhere.
