Top 3 Commentaries
The Epistle to the Romans. NICNT. Eerdmans, 1996.
Nijay Gupta
Now in its second edition, this is widely-known and appreciated as a carefully researched commentary with attention to the Greek text, but also offers Moo’s perspective on key issues in Pauline theology. more
Warren Truesdale
This is an exceptional commentary that is shorter (remember that this word is relative) and less expensive (and so is this) than Cranfield. more

Tim Challies
Romans is a book aptly highlighting that up-to-date commentaries do not represent historical arrogance as much as sheer necessity. more
Phillip J. Long
Cranfield replaced the venerable Sanday and Headlam volume on Romans in the ICC series (available for free via Google Books). more
Romans. BECNT. Baker Academic, 1998.
Sergio Castrillón
(The 2nd edition) is a must-have on any serious Bible student's shelf. more
Robert M. Bowman, Jr
Evangelical exegetical and theological commentary that is critical of the approach taken by Dunn and other scholars. more
Tim Challies
Several commentators on the commentaries seem to treat Moo, Murray and Schreiner as a team or trio. more
New and Notable
The Letter to the Romans. NICNT. Eerdmans, 2018.
PastorLlew
I highly recommend Moo's commentary on the Letter to the Romans, the attention to detail and focus on all arguments relating to a verse or section of scripture added with his own take and reason for it gives an exceptionally good commentary on Romans. more
Philip du Toit
Moo's revised commentary is slightly bigger than the first edition and retains everything that made the first edition so great. more
Romans. BECNT. Baker Academic, 2018.
BrandonSCorley
I do also want to say that I believe Schreiner is wrong on 10:5. more
BrandonSCorley
Of all the Romans commentaries I've read (and I've read nearly all of them since Cranfield), I consider this one to be the most accurate of them all. more
