Commentary on the Epistle to the RomansDr. Charles Hodge was known more as a systematic theologian than as an expositor of Scripture. Nevertheless, his whole life was devoted primarily to the critical and systematic study of the Bible. Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans has become a standard resource for teachers, pastors, and educated laypersons. Hodge's introductory material, chapter analyses, and verse-by-verse exposition provide - even after more than one hundred years - solid, relevant instruction for today's student of the Bible. |
