The best commentary on Romans ever written,
This review is from: Romans: Verse-by-Verse: A Classic Evangelical Commentary (Paperback)
I am a huge fan of this commentary which dates from around the 1930s (I think). William Newell was one of the greatets Bible teachers of his day. A friend and colleague of D.L. Moody and R.A. Torrey, he taught thousands of people as a Bibke teacher in Moody's Bible college.
This book is the best commentary on Hebrew I have ever seen. I studies Romans at Masters level and over 18 months I used nearly every commentary on Romans ever written in the English language. This is simply the best of the lot. It is excellent for three reasons: 1) It is very easy to understand despite being very in depth. 2) It accurately teaches the word. You can rely on it to explain the deeper truths of Romans 3) It does not avoid the difficult passages but tackles them head on.

A Timeless Classic,

This review is from: Romans: Verse-by-Verse: A Classic Evangelical Commentary (Paperback)
This commentary on Romans by William Newell is a timeless classic. If you want to get grounded in what is considered to be the most important book in the Bible this is a must for your library. Newell is true to the Pauline dispensational view of the scriptures and is clear about the error of Reformation theologians who try to make a good show for the doctrine of justification but miss the mark on sanctification by trying to keep the Law as the rule of life for the Christian. Newell is also the author of some great hymns like At Calvary and Only Sinner Saved by Grace. This one has stood the test of time for a reason. Buy it.
God Bless, Don Boudreau

This review is from: Romans: Verse-by-Verse: A Classic Evangelical Commentary (Paperback)
I lead a ladies Bible Study. In teaching Romans I found this book the absolute best reference to use. It is clear, thorough, and a wonderful book to explain the gems visible and not so visible throughout the book of Romans.
I am so thankful I got it. It would be in my list of top 5 Bible books to take to a desert island. I could read through it once a year and never get tired of it. Edited to add (july 2011) that I have just bought the kindle version so I can take it everywhere! LOVE THIS BOOK!
