Excerpt from Notes on Epistles of St. Paul: From Unpublished Commentaries
The above explanation applies to the notes on the Two Epistles to the Thessalonians, and on the first seven chapters (for no more is here published) of the First Epistle to the Corinthians and of the Epistle to the Romans. In the case of the fragment of the Epistle to the Ephesians (eph. I. 1 - 14) no qualification is necessary; for in this case the Bishop's manuscript is written out fully, just as he intended it for publication in his contemplated edition of that Epistle. It thus represents his final judgment on these verses.
In a few places, quotations, carefully specified, have been inserted from Dr Lightfoot's book 'on a Fresh Revision of the English New Testament (3rd Edition with an additional appendix, a work which, though published with a special purpose, yet contains a great amount of New Testa ment exegesis of permanent value.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book publishes the author's previously unpublished commentaries and notes on the New Testament Epistles of Paul. The author's influential scholarship during the 19th century emphasised a historical and grammatical approach to theological research, and his notes demonstrate his attention to the original Greek texts. Contextualising the letters both historically and against other Pauline writings, the commentary considers themes including the Thessalonians' conversion, their enduring faith under persecution, the coming of Christ and the Christian life. The commentary not only provides a valuable resource for studying Paul's letters, but also demonstrates a key moment in the development of New Testament research.
