The Epistle to the Romans (New International Greek… by Richard N. Longenecker

A reference commentary on the Epistle to the Romans for generations to come.

Somewhat a cop-out in treatment of Ch. 9, particularly on "vessels of wrath".

Overall, an important work on studies of the Epistle and Pauline theology that should not be overlooked.
