Front Cover
Kregel Publications, 1938 - Religion - 588 pages

It is back, back, back, to an incarnate Christ and the atoning blood, or it is on, on, on to atheism and despair," wrote Francis L. Patton, former president of Princeton University . Those prophetic words aptly introduce William R. Newell's classic commentary on the Epistle to the Romans and underscore the church's continuing need to study and teach the book of Romans.Includes helpful comments on both the Greek and English textsPrecise and ample footnotes provide valuable discussions on the historical and critical context of individual passages.
