excellent suitable materisl for the lay person and bible teacher
Paul Barnett manages to give a clear analysis of the text with a lightness of touch. This is a very helpful non-technical commentary. However, that does not mean that Barnett's comments lack depth. It is that he only feels the need to explain Greek vocabulary where it is necessary. AS a result this is a appropriate commentary to support the Bible teacher, small group studies as well as for personal devotion. Barnett's considerable insights into the historical background to the gospels add weight to his writing.
