Cbd Exclusive Products Romans, 2 Volumes

Formerly published as a four-volume set by Eerdmans, CBD now brings Barnhouse's classic commentary Romans back to life in this handsome two-volume set.

Using his own translation, Barnhouse provides a comprehensive exegetical treatment of Paul's letter to the Romans that is renowned for its depth of insight, yet highly accessible to all readers. Though a respected scholar, Barnhouse spent most of his career as a dedicated pastor and was praised widely for his unusual ability to make the biblical message clear and practical.

In Romans Barnhouse uses Paul's famous epistle as a jumping-off point for a detailed exposition of core biblical doctrines. He proceeds phrase-by-phrase through the text and long the way each passage is examined in its immediate context and then related to broader biblical teaching. This allows Barnhouse to faithfully adhere to the Reformation maxim that Scripture interprets Scripture, and that it is perspicuous (clear) in its teaching, infallible, and authoritative Thus, his focus on Romans becomes an exposition on the doctrines of the entire Bible.

Reader's new to Barnhouse with appreciate his distinctive and lucid writing, while those familiar will again be able to hear a faithful and classic presentation of the Bible's message.

I had tried for awhile to buy these when they were still in a 4 volume set; but for whatever reason, it never became available. Barnhouse's very readable and insightful commentary on the epistle to the Christian church at Rome is such a joy to read. I was "fed" on every page, word after word, sentence after sentence, paragraph after paragraph. If I could choose a small handful of books that I could take with me into Eternity, these would definitely make the list. Aside from GOD's Word, never I have received so much for so little. I will be reading these again and again for years to come. Don't hesitate to buy these; who knows how long they'll continue to be published.

I received this set as a gift! This is a great set. Barnhouse was a great writer and preacher! He was way ahead of his time. I just wished it was in hardback. I use my books often, and for some reason I just can't get along with paperback books.
