A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Pastoral Epistles
Edinburgh; (1999): T. & T. Clark. First Edition. Octavo. Item #031500
xlii, 869 pages. General Index. Index of Greek Words. Perhaps the finest scholarly commentary on the pastorals by the Professor of New Testament Exegesis at Aberdeen University. His article is quoted by major scholars on key issues of the book (see JSTOR). The first 108 pages deal with the major issues (the unity of the pastorals, Pauline authorship, and the quotes of the passage from the church fathers). While a thorough knowlege of Koine Greek is not essential, it will be helpful to the serious student on such issues as I Tim. 6:13 on Jesus before Pilate; I Tim. 2:12-15 Woman saved through childbearing, and the issue of authority over men in the church. A fine bright copy bound in green cloth, spine lettering in gilt, in a fine dust jacket.
