Philip D. W. Krey

Peter D. S. Krey

In this volume of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture, Philip Krey and Peter Krey offer a diversity of Reformation-era biblical commentary on Romans 9–16. Drawing upon Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, Radical, and Roman Catholic resources, they reveal the breadth and depth of early modern biblical exegesis for the renewal of the church today.

New Testament Volume 8

Romans 9-16

Thomas Ryan

Ian Christopher Levy

This is the second volume of The Bible in Medieval Tradition (BMT), a series that aims to reconnect the church with part of its rich history of biblical interpretation. Ian Levy, Philip Krey, and Thomas Ryan's Letter to the Romans presents the history of early and medieval interpretations of Romans and gives substantial translations of select medieval commentaries. Written by eight representative medieval interpreters between the ninth and fourteenth centuries, these commentaries have never been translated into English before. This valuable book will enhance contemporary reading of the Bible even as it lends insight into medieval scholarship. As Levy says, the medieval commentaries exhibit "qualities that many modern commentaries lack: a spiritual depth that reflects their very purpose, namely, to read Holy Scripture within the sacred tradition under the guidance of the Holy Spirit."

The Letter to the Romans

Lesley Janette Smith

The first modern study of Nicholas of Lyra, immensely influential fourteenth-century Franciscan biblical commentator. Fifteen essays on his masterpiece, the "Postillae super totam Bibliam," illuminate the remarkable achievement of this key thinker, from his knowledge of Hebrew to political ideas.
