A helpfully concise commentary on Paul's letter to the early Christians in Rome, which the Apostle wrote just a few years before the outbreak of Nero's persecution. Keener examines each paragraph for its function in the letter as a whole, helping the reader follow Paul's argument. Where relevant, he draws on his vast work in ancient Jewish and Greco-Roman sources in order to help modern readers understand the message of Romans according to the way the first audience would have heard it. Throughout, Keener focuses on major points that are especially critical for the contemporary study of Paul's most influential and complex New Testament letter.
Excerpt from Lectures on the Epistle of Paul, the Apostle to the Romans You occasionally meet in the New Tes tament, with an express reference to a certain body of writings, which are desi nated by the term of Scriptures. E now apply this term to the whole Bible. But, in those days, it was restricted to that collection of pieces which makes up the Old Testament. For the new was only in the process of its formation, and was not yet completed; and it was not till some time after the evangelists wrote their nar ratives, and the apostles their communi cations, that they were athered into one volume, or made to stan in equal and co. Ordinate rank with the inspired books of the former dispensation. So that all which is said of the Scrip tures in the New Testament, must be re garded as the testimony of its authors to the value and importance of those writings which compose the Old Testament. And it would therefore appear from Paul's epistle to Timothy, that they are able to make us wise unto salvation.
