Quick Summary

Commentary on Romans is a significant work by New Testament scholar William Sanday, co-authored with Arthur C. Headlam and published in 1895. This commentary played a key role in introducing continental biblical criticism to English students and the Anglican world.1

The work focuses on the Letter of Paul to the Romans, a foundational text in Christian theology. In this letter, Paul systematically presents his theological views, particularly concerning the salvation of both Jews and Gentiles through faith in Jesus Christ. The commentary likely delves into Paul's arguments about justification by faith and the inclusion of Gentiles in God's plan, as well as the ethical instructions that follow in the letter.2
