Books on Romans

As I mentioned in an earlier post, my sights are now set on Romans. Of course, my church will still be in Matthew through March, and there is a lot there that I cannot wait to preach on (i.e., the Olivet Discourse, Lord's Supper, Crucifixion, Resurrection, Great Commission). But I do like to plan these things well ahead (just ask my wife). So here are the books I've found useful as I have begun my prep work for Romans.

1. Douglas Moo, Romans, NICNT

2. Tom Schreiner, Romans, BEC

3. John Murray, Romans, Eerdmans

4. Martin Luther, Commentary on Romans, Kregel

5. John Calvin, Romans

6. Karl Barth, The Epistle to the Romans
(consult with care, of course)

7. Herman Ridderbos, Paul: An Outline of His Theology

8. Frank Thielman, Paul and the Law

9. Frank Thielman, The Law and the New Testament

10. James Boice, Romans: An Expositional Commentary

11. Gunther Bornkamm, Paul

12. Edgar J. Goodspeed, Paul

13. Gerald Bray (ed.), Romans, ACCS


BOOKS I DON'T HAVE BUT WOULD LIKE TO GET

Lloyd-Jones, Exposition of Romans
(One day...)

William Dumbrell, Romans: A New Testament Commentary

Justin N.,

I am very impressed that you are so far along on Romans already. I am falling in love with that book all over again right now because I have been reading Piper's "The Justification of God" and listening to him talk about Romans 9-11. This has caused me to delve back into Romans. What a great book! I am already looking forward to you sermons.

The best commentary on Romans available: Leon Morris' Pillar New Testament Commentary.

I love the PNTC series! Very sad that Galatians is not out yet.
