In his book Romans Verse-by-Verse, William Newell explores the truths of Christ's salvation exactly as they are found in the rich text of Romans. Written by the Apostle Paul, Romans is often considered one of the most important books in the Bible. Newell's Verse-by-Verse is a perfect combination of analytic exegesis and devotional interpretation. Newell highlights Paul's central claims in each verse and explain their significance in astounding detail. Because of Newell's deep understanding of both Greek and English biblical translations, he is able to point out subtle yet essential features of the text that often go unnoticed by many readers. Throughout his commentary, Newell consistently defines difficult terminology and provides many additional footnotes for further technical clarification. This rewarding commentary makes the challenging book of Romans easy to comprehend and appreciate.

This will be an ongoing read and reference.. I have only gone through Romans 1 so far, as that is primary reason I purchased this years ago.. to accompany a deep dive/memorization of that chapter. In going back through my highlights, I am compelled now to give this 5 stars and to go read through the remainder of the chapters.
This book is changing my life. God knew I was desperate for a deep understanding of all the layers of salvation and reconciliation Jesus has accomplished for us. The freedom of the Gospel is on full display in a way I have never seen before through Newell’s intricate and grandfatherly presentation. It is a salve to my soul.
this one of the best commentaries on Romans tgat I have ever read! If anyone is truly wanting too learn the book of romans, this issue will not dissapoint.
