Excerpt from Biblical Commentary on the New Testament, Vol. 1
The general character and merits Of Olshausen's Commentary on the New Testament are too well known both abroad and at home to need being set forth in detail. In its combination Of exact philo logical learning, careful tracing Of the logical connexion and full unfolding Of the thought, and hearty sympathy with the spirit of the sacred writings, it stands almost alone, having nothing fully corresponding to it in our own or any language. This union of rare and high excellences makes it almost equally valuable to the scholar, and the unlearned but intelligent student Of the Scriptures. The latter finds the richest veins of thought Opened, and Scripture truth unfolded in its depth and spirituality while the former finds the leading critical and philological points discussed, briefly indeed, but with a judgment and accuracy which furnish the best guarantee for the soundness Of the rich doctrinal and practical teachings that are based upon them. A striking feature and excellence Of the Com mentary, is its clear and constant recognition Of the organic unity Of the entire Scriptures, and hence its constant illustration Of the New Testament from the Old. Beyond, perhaps, the majority Of commentators, Olshausen has traced the gradual unfolding Of the divine revelation through its successive stages. He sees the New Testament rooted in the Old, the Old reaching its consummation in the New and he is eminently felicitous in employing the beautiful and blended lights which the two grand divisions Of the sacred vol ume reciprocally cast upon each other.

The book's author provides historical context and insights into the period in which the New Testament texts were written. The book discusses the authorship of specific New Testament books that have been brought into question throughout history, including 1 John and James. Rather than simply stating a position, the author reviews the arguments of critical scholars and provides evidence to support his conclusions. This book is comprehensive and concise, containing an in-depth analysis of various critical historical primary source documents, especially the writings of the early church fathers who provide valuable insight into the thoughts of the early Christian community. The work concludes with an explanation and defense of the author's viewpoint that the work of the critical scholars to examine such foundational text does no damage, but rather strengths the Christian faith by strengthening the foundation of the faith through scholarly examination.
