Customer Reviews

Excellent commentary

This is an excellent commentary of Romans. Osborne interacts well with the Calvinistic perspective and makes a good exegetical defense of the Arminian perspective against Calvinism.

Concise and articulate

I bought this commentary because Osborne is an Arminian and I'm doing a presentation on Romans 9 (I'm a student at Moody Bible Institute). His explanation of Romans 9 is extremely well articulated and expressed excellently. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it isn't technical enough for my liking, but readability is the goal of the IVP NT series, not overwhelming technicality.

From the cover:

From the back of the book: In this careful study of Romans, readers will find an introduction that sets the letter in context and surveys its general content, highlighting issues surrounding its authorship, date, occasion, and purpose. Passage-by-passage commentary follows that explains what the letter means for today and what it meant for its original hearers.
