THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS: An Exegetical Commentary JOHN MURRAY (1889-1975) with a New Introduction by Sinclair Ferguson
Careful exegetical attention, a robust knowledge of Reformed systematic theology, and an acute awareness of our spiritual needs all mark this staggering work of profound scholarship. In stunning detail, Murray leads us through the traditional landscape of a Roman’s commentary (authorship, purpose, structure, verse-by-verse exposition), engaging with leading scholars and theologians of his time. But he adds to this discussion his own depth of understanding based on years of teaching and studying the text. In this volume, Murray long-debated issues that remain relevant to the church: the nature of justification, the relationship between Adam and Christ (Rom. 5), and the identity of the “weak” and the “strong” (Rom. 14). Now offered to readers for the first time in a single-volume format with updated indexes, The Epistle to the Romans features a new and and instructive introduction by Sinclair B. Ferguson that illuminates the context of Murray's timeless commentary with insight into how and why it came to be a landmark volume both academically and pastorally. The Epistle to the Romans is sure to find space once again on the shelf of every pastor, teacher, and theologian.
ENDORSEMENTS
"I don't think any commentary has surpassed Murray in theological depth and precision on the book of Romans. The sentences are complex and carefully crafted, and they are penetrating in the depth and scope of their theological richness." - John Piper
"This has been my favorite commentary on Romans for the past 47 years. It is a must for every serious student of the Bible." - Alistair Begg
"Of the numerous fine commentaries there are on Romans, over the years Murray's and Calvin's have been my go-to-ones. This re-publication is most welcome." - Richard Gaffin
This brilliant commentary is made even more enticing by the Introduction added by modern theologian par excellence Sinclair Ferguson. It is strongly recommended that the reader take a few minutes to read his words before moving into the actual commentary. His words will whet the appetite of the reader and prepare him for the feast that awaits.
