Luther: Lectures on Romans

by Wilhelm Pauck (Editor)

Wilhelm Pauck enhances his fresh translation of Luther's Lectures on Romans with a body of notes which, along with his lucid introduction, greatly enhances the usefulness of Luther's work. Long recognized for the quality of its translations, introductions, explanatory notes, and indexes, the Library of Christian Classics provides scholars and students with modern English translations of some of the most significant Christian theological texts in history. Through these works--each written prior to the end of the sixteenth century--contemporary readers are able to engage the ideas that have shaped Christian theology and the church through the centuries.

It's interesting to see where Luther is early on in his life. As part of that, I was somewhat bored compared to his later stuff, but he overall has some good insights.

Solid interpretation, full of application. Getting away from modern evangelical preoccupation with pure grammitcal-historical exegesis was a helpful change of pace. It made for excellent devotional reading. The extra light this work sheds on the historical context is valuable as well. He skips over chapter 16, which I thought was odd. On the whole, though, this was great.
