—Online Reviewer
Hughes deals fully and minutely with the Epistle from a philological as well as a theological point of view. . . . Hughes' erudition is impressive, and his exposition and evaluation of complicated theories proposed over the centuries are models of lucidity. No one can work through this volume without gaining a deeper appreciation of the great and abiding themes taught in the Epistle in all their power and fullness. Pastors and students alike will gain from the commentary a deeper understanding of the riches of the Epistle.
—Bruce M. Metzger, The Princeton Seminary Bulletin
Hughes has produced not only a momenument of learning, but also an inspiring and compulsively readable exposition of a very difficult part of God's Word. . . . He is obviously steeped in the literature of the Epistle and fully conversant with all the shades of scholarly opinion.
—Geoffrey B. Wilson, The Banner of Truth
As in the rest of Hughes' writings, the treatment is not only full, astute, and of the highest scholarly standards but also rich in theological insight.
