Commentary On 1 & 2 Timothy

Description

Gerhard’s commentary speaks to ministers of the Church and the people they serve. The church fathers considered Paul’s two Epistles to Timothy essential for defining the pastoral ministry and the Church’s life. These letters explain the duties, powers, and promises given to Christian pastors and the people they serve. Johann Gerhard’s commentary explains the biblical text, answers questions that commonly raise doubts, resolves apparent contradictions, and applies the text for teaching, admonishing, warning, and consoling God’s people. Pastors, seminarians, professors, and students of the Word will appreciate this commentary by one of the outstanding Lutheran theologians now translated into English for the first time.
