Full Description
An Accessible Verse-by-Verse Commentary of Romans
Choosing a Bible commentary can be a daunting prospect. With complex terms and dense exposition, many are tailored to scholarly theologians rather than everyday believers. And for those selecting resources in order to lead a small-group Bible study, speak at a women's gathering, or simply grow in their knowledge of God's Word, it can be hard to know where to start.
With warmth and clarity, Jen Oshman makes in-depth Bible study accessible without diminishing the richness of God's Word. Verse-by-verse, Oshman guides readers through the full ESV text of Romans to aid their personal study, group discussion, teaching, and outreach. In this well-loved epistle, Paul presents the gospel with deep theological insight and practical application across a wide array of topics, including salvation by faith, works-righteousness, Jesus throughout Scripture, God's heart for all nations, and more. Each volume in the Conversational Commentary series includes an engaging introduction, historical and cultural background, key themes, and suggestions for deeper study.
