Writing to the early Christians in Rome, the apostle Paul said, "Do
not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal
of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of
God, what is good and acceptable and perfect" (Rom 12:2 ESV).
Perhaps more than any other New Testament epistle, Paul's letter to
the Romans has been the focus of Christian reflection throughout
the church's history, transforming the minds and convicting the
hearts of believers. Sixteenth-century reformer Martin Luther
reflected the church's longstanding emphasis on this portion of the
canon: "Let the Epistle to the Romans be the door and the key to
holy Scripture for you; otherwise you will never enter into a
proper understanding and comprehension of the Bible." In this
volume of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture, Philip Krey and
Peter Krey guide readers with care through a diversity of
Reformation-era commentary on the second half of Paul's letter to
the Roman church. Among the difficult issues addressed by Paul and
commented on by early modern exegetes were the predestination of
God's elect, the destiny of Israel, the role of Gentiles in
salvation history, the ethical demands of the Christian life, and
the Christian's relationship to the state. Here, readers will
encounter familiar voices and discover lesser-known figures from a
variety of theological traditions, including Lutherans, Reformed,
Radicals, Anglicans, and Roman Catholics. The volume draws on a
variety of resources, including commentaries, sermons, treatises,
and confessions, much of which appears here for the first time in
English. Gathering together these Reformation-era reflections, it
provides resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to
better understand the depth and breadth of Reformation biblical
commentary and aids the ongoing transformation of the minds-and
lives-of people today.
