Book Overview

Understand Scripture. Faithfully navigate tough passages. Grow more in love with Jesus.

The MacArthur New Testament Commentary is nothing less than a library of faithful exegesis and exposition. This project is unparalleled in our times, and John MacArthur has produced a masterful commentary series that demands attention and deserves a place in every preacher's library. -R. Albert Mohler, Jr., PhD, president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY

Romans speaks to Christians today just as powerfully as it did in the first century. It addresses moral, intellectual, social, and spiritual issues, but most importantly, it lays the theological foundation for the Christian faith: how God has made it possible through Christ for sinners to be made right before Him.

Join John MacArthur as he explains each verse in a way that is both doctrinally precise and intensely practical. Taking into account the cultural, theological, and Old Testament contexts of each passage, MacArthur tackles interpretive challenges and fairly evaluates differing views, giving the reader confidence in his conclusions.

The MacArthur New Testament Commentary series comes from the experience, wisdom, and insight of one of the most trusted ministry leaders and Bible scholars of our day. Each volume was written to be as comprehensive and accurate as possible, dealing thoroughly with every key phrase and word in the Scripture without being unnecessarily technical. This commentary will help to give a better, fuller, richer understanding of God's Word, while challenging the reader to a vibrant personal spiritual walk.

A Great Devotional Resource. Dr. Mac Rightly Divides the Word of Truth.

Dr. MacArthur's writings are not for the faint of heart. He says what he means without compromise or sugar-coating. This installment of his New Testament commentary series belongs in the library of the serious seeker, along with Romans 1-8 by Dr. Mac. His exegesis on the blinding of Israel will open your eyes to the sovereigty, as well as the faithfulness of God. Dr. Mac. has poured over the Old Testament prophecies and Paul's revelation as it was given to him by the Angel, to present the believer with a grand portrait that shows his/her position in Christ, which is necessary for a Godly walk and witness. Romans was Paul's grand work, and this latter-day divine, Dr. John MacArthur, offers an exposition that is worthy of the divines of old, such as Spurgeon, Gill, Pink, Owen, Tozer, and so many others.

Great resource for the serious Bible student

If you can only buy one commentary for an intensive study of Romans, this is the one to get. MacArthur is the gold standard for contemporary Bible exposition, and he is as thorough here as ever. Romans is an important epistle to understand, and nothing I've found can help you understand it better than this commentary and the companion, which covers chapters 1-8.

A must-have for your Bible reference library

John MacArthur does his usual, thorough job exegeting and expounding the Word of God. In this, his second volume of the book of Romans, he addresses some difficult topics, such as God's promise that Israel has not been forsaken but will ultimately be redeemed, and the believer's attitude and responsibilities towards governing authorities. John MacArthur's commentaries are rich and valuable resources, both for pastors and laymen.
