In "Romans", Paul distills the very essence of his faith and belief. He writes to the vanguard of the new Christian faith in the heart of the greatest empire the world had ever known. Paul understood the importance to Rome's fledgling church of a secure foundation from which to launch itself - and this letter was to be that foundation. William Barclay makes Paul's words relevant in today's world, showing us that we are not too different from the Romans to whom this letter was addressed nearly 2000 years ago.

If you want to know the story behind the passage, William Barclay is your man. His books are all rich in helping you understand the whys and when of the books of the New Testament. His commentary of Romans is no exception. It helps you understand why the book was written, to who it was written. No one provides better insight. Because of his critical approach, he does sometime question authenticity and leave the reader wondering if the passage truly is inspired or simply a historical recoded of fact or tradition of man.
