Review of Thomas R. Schreiner’s commentary available

Schreiner, Thomas R. Galatians. Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament, 9. Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2010. 0310243726, 9780310243724.

David Luckensmeyer of Australian Catholic University has reviewed Schreiner’s commentary and you can read all about it on bookreviews.org: http://www.bookreviews.org/pdf/7879_8605.pdf

This review is most concerned with the physical layout of the commentary and editorial issues and secondly with critiquing with Schreiner’s Baptist presuppositions. In summary “Schreiner offers a reasonable analysis of most verses …. it is the ideological tendencies of the author that mar an otherwise very readable commentary on Galatians.” One is left to conclude that conservatives will love this commentary whilst others will find it lacking.
