Opis

The book you now hold in your hands contains nearly everything the great American puritan Jonathan Edwards (1703-58) ever wrote on the book of Romans. It is collated into a verse-by-verse Bible commentary. Pastors, theologians, historians, and Bible study leaders will find a treasure of biblical insight along with practical application, as one of the great theologians of the Christian church expounds the book that Martin Luther called the "most important piece in the New Testament." Jonathan Edwards' expository genius is clearly evident in both the depth of his biblical insight as well as his logic. Readers will be encouraged and edified as they delve deeply into the book of Romans with Jonathan Edwards by their side. Jonathan Edwards (1703-58) was the leading American theologian in the Colonial period, and his influence continues to be felt two and a hald centuries after his death. David S. Lovi holds a master's degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He lives in Palatine, Illinois, with his wife, Amy. Benjamin Westerhoff holds a master's degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He lives in Seattle, Washington, with his wife, Maria, and their children, Isaiah and Faith. 'What a treat David Lovi and Benjamin Westerhoff have served up for the church sumptuous Edwardsian cuisine from the rich Pauline menu of Romans. This is unique work that gives substantive nuggets of thought from Edwards on the book of Romans. If you love Edwards and you love Romans, this book needs to be in your library.' Brian Borgman, author of Feelings and Faith. 'Lovi and Westerhoff have provided all who study the book of Romans a real gift - a complete collection of Edwards' work on this epistle. As Paul exposits the gospel, so Edwards exposits Paul, and this collection exposits Edwards.' Tim M. Sigler, Professor of Bible, Moody Bible Institute.
