Romans 9-16 MacArthur New Testament Commentary: Volume 16

Dr. MacArthur's writings are not for the faint of heart. He says what he means without compromise or sugar-coating. This installment of his New Testament commentary series belongs in the library of the serious seeker, along with Romans 1-8 by Dr. Mac. His exegesis on the blinding of Israel will open your eyes to the sovereigty, as well as the faithfulness of God. Dr. Mac. has poured over the Old Testament prophecies and Paul's revelation as it was given to him by the Angel, to present the believer with a grand portrait that shows his/her position in Christ, which is necessary for a Godly walk and witness. Romans was Paul's grand work, and this latter-day divine, Dr. John MacArthur, offers an exposition that is worthy of the divines of old, such as Spurgeon, Gill, Pink, Owen, Tozer, and so many others.

Do you know how many seminaries there are in the US who believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God and teach it's inerrancy? TEN! That's all out of hundreds! Do you know who John Macarthur is? The President of the Master's Seminary, one of those ten. If you want accurate, well-written commentary by someone who believes the Bible and thinks like it's authors this is the book you need. He explains every part of the Book of Romans in great detail in a way any lay person can understand. Even if you've read the Book of Romans a hundred times, you will learn new things from John's commentary. The Book of Romans is one of the cornerstones of Christianity and the foundation of righteousness. If you are serious about studying Romans, you need this boook. Period.

If you can only buy one commentary for an intensive study of Romans, this is the one to get. MacArthur is the gold standard for contemporary Bible exposition, and he is as thorough here as ever. Romans is an important epistle to understand, and nothing I've found can help you understand it better than this commentary and the companion, which covers chapters 1-8.

John MacArthur does his usual, thorough job exegeting and expounding the Word of God. In this, his second volume of the book of Romans, he addresses some difficult topics, such as God's promise that Israel has not been forsaken but will ultimately be redeemed, and the believer's attitude and responsibilities towards governing authorities. John MacArthur's commentaries are rich and valuable resources, both for pastors and laymen.
