Romans studies suggestion
Hello all,
I'm considering studying Romans this next year. I'm curious what commentaries or other resources people would recommend.
Thanks.

I worked through the NT331 course this summer and I recommend it.
Also, I found this commentary helpful:
Johnson, Luke Timothy. Reading Romans: A Literary and Theological Commentary. Reading the New Testament Series. Macon, GA: Smyth & Helwys Publishing, 2001.
And this resource:
Hawthorne, Gerald F., Ralph P. Martin, and Daniel G. Reid, eds. Dictionary of Paul and His Letters. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 1993.
There are many more good ones I did not mention.

@Ronald Quick - Romans is a great book to study!
As mentioned NT331 is something worth looking at. You might also look at bestcommentaries.com to read reviews on commentaries.
I see that you tagged your post 'Messianic Jewish Products', so assuming that is the direction you want to study Romans from, you might consider "Romans for the Practical Messianic" by J.K. McKee. It's not sold on Logos. Also look at Tim Hegg.
You might also use Google to look for materials focusing on Romans from a law-positive Christian tradition and check out the New Perspective on Paul.

Thanks for the recommendations. I do have NT331, so that sounds like a good place to start.
I'm not sure how 'Messianic Jewish Products' was tagged. I must have clicked something accidentally, but still appreciate the resource recommendations and look at them too.

I own the paper copy of this one - It's pretty nice and Moo is the highest rated for his Romans NICNT on bestcommentaries

Donovan: I thought the whole point of AI search is to replace Google search. Is there a way to do the Google search you recommend using Logos? Thanks
btw, how do I only include part of the quote in my post (like we used to do before)? Quoting the whole thing makes it difficult for the reader to figure out what we are responding to.
I believe in a Win-Win-Win God.

I used Google search as a generic term. I personally like Perplexity, and use it more than Google these days.
The quoting function is something that @Jason Stone (Logos) is looking at. It is a bit of a blunt tool. As a workaround, you can use the '>' to start a line and manually copy the text that you are quoting.

You might find the Romans section of the following resource useful. It's included in some 2025 Libraries, so you may have the resource without having specifically purchased it. Michael Eaton was mentored by Martyn Lloyd-Jones and he was particularly strong on Romans and Hebrews.
