Opis

In this book ninety recent exegetical notes are brought together in seven parts: Matthew, Mark, Luke, Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Galatians, and other New Testament writings, canonically ordered. These articles are mostly brief notes. In them I usually react to a recent publication. I avoid an expanded discussion with the existing literature. My aim is to investigate the logic of a biblical passage. I am in search of meaning and try to follow, as closely as possible, the reasoning of the original author. In order to better focus on the text itself I often cite the particular Greek text and its translation.
