Reviews
"My favorite New Testament commentary
is that of R.C.H. Lenski... I profit greatly from his sane
and spiritually sensitive exposition. You do not have to
be a Greek scholar to benefit from Lenski."
—Warren Wiersbe, author, "BE" series
"A great work of exegesis, every page
the result of long meditation, based on rich scholarship,
warm with holy reverence for the Word of God."
—Moody Monthly
"Excellent but most comprehensive for
those who have some basic familiarity with Greek."
—Beth Moore, founder, Living Proof
Ministries
"A conservative, very extensive
exposition based upon an exegesis of the Greek text.
Arminian in doctrine, maintains a rigid approach to Greek
grammar, and follows an amillennial interpretation of
eschatology. Exceedingly helpful background material and
abounds in good preaching values"
—The Minister's Library
"For works on the Greek text, the
Exegete will be served well with the work by R. C. H.
Lenski"
—Criswell Theological Review
Description
In this outstanding commentary series,
Richard C. H. Lenski interprets all the
books of the New Testament on the basis of
careful and thorough exegetical research. The author, a
meticulous student of Greek, provides an original, literal
translation of the text. Section by section he examines
carefully the background and essential teaching contained in
each portion of the New Testament. Writing from a conservative
point of view, Lenski uses available sources of exegetical
study. He also brings to light new interpretations of
Scripture which will be of special interest to the preacher.
The author's purpose is to answer the question "What does this
portion of the Bible say to us?" He sees the answer to the
question against the background of the whole message of the
Word of God.
