| | | Favorite commentaries by today's scholars
With Sproul's new work on Romans soon to be released, I thought I'd ask...
Most everyone here (myself included) has an affinity for reading dead folks, however I am curious to see what contemporary commentaries are prized by PB brethren.

My favorite Romans commentary is by John Murray.

Cranfield on Romans - and, at almost 94, he's not dead yet!

Ralph Davis is superb. May be better than anyone dead on 1&2 Kings.
Alec Motyer is also excellent. I'm sure there are more, but these two come immediately to mind.

on Ephesians I found very helpful
Peter T O'Brien, very thorough on Pauline Authorship
and even more so, Harold W. Hoehner, recently departed (like Ridderbos)
(Hoehner surprisingly doesn't buy the Circular aimed destination of Ephesians)
and also the 2 volumes by Richard Phillips
