This book provides a solution to one of the Bible's notorious cruxes, the identity of the speaking 'I' of Romans 7.

Recenzje

'… Timmins's study deserves to be widely read. His argument advances a new and refreshing attempt to identify the speaker of Romans 7 as a Christian. Indeed, among current scholarship it is the finest study available for this position. Future studies of Romans 7 will need to engage this important contribution.' Jason Maston, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
