The Pastoral Epistles (International Critical Commentary) - Tapa dura

'For the professional New Testament scholar this at once becomes an essential book.' Kenneth Grayson, The Methodist Recorder. "This is a very welcome addition to the ICC. It will become a standard work and more popular commentaries will draw freely from its conclusions. Dr Marshall has tackled an unenviable task with his usual erudition and honesty. The careful and positive treatment of the text will enable many to take these letters more seriously as the Word of God." Edward Burrows, Baptist Ministers' Journal "This long-awaited commentary fully meets one's expectations both of this series (ICC) and of this commentator. It is thorough, careful, clear in its analysis of the issues, fair in its judgements, conservative in its conclusions. It is extremely well-informed. " Alastair Campbell, Spurgeon's College London, Anvil "This volume, in this series, by this author, needs no commendation: it is an essential component of every scholarly library." Peter Doble, University of Leeds, Theological Book Review "Marshall succeeds in his stated aim of producing a readable and 'user-friendly' commentary . . . His tactful balancing of issues succeeds in preventing any alienation of readers from other backgrounds and traditions." Novum Testamentum, 2000 "This commentary belongs to the best biblical scholarship currently available and is always worth consulting." - International Review of Biblical Studies, 1999/2000

This addition to the ICC series is an introduction to the Epistles to Timothy and Titus, treating their structure, origin and character, followed by a detailed investigation of the texts.'
