Romans: The New Humanity (Romans 12-16)

Romans Expositional Commentaries #4

by James Montgomery Boice

The Boice Commentary series combines careful scholarship and clear communication in a verse-by-verse and section by section reading of various biblical texts. Combining thoughtful interpretation with contemporary insight for daily living, James Montgomery Boice explains the meaning of the text and relates the text's concerns to the church, Christianity, and the world in which we live. Whether used for devotions, preaching, or teaching, this authoritative and thought-provoking series will appeal to a wide range of readers, from serious Bible students to interested laypersons.

"Christianity has been the most powerful, transforming force in human history," says Boice. "And the book of Romans is the most basic, most comprehensive statement of true Christianity." This fourth volume in the Romans collection covers sixty lessons on such topics as church and state, the law of love, and Christian liberty.

Reviews

[Michael Beck · Rating 5 out of 5]

Boice has some of the best quotes and illustrations of any commentary on Romans.This is a series of sermons, so he often excels at theology and exhortation over exegesis. Recommended along with Martyn Lloyd-Jones sermons to get a sense of the application and theology of Romans applied to our western world today.
