Gerhard's Commentary on 1 & 2 Timothy
Publisher Description
The books of 1 and 2 Timothy are central for defining pastoral ministry and the Church's life. Johann Gerhard's commentary explains the biblical text, answers questions that commonly raise doubts, resolves apparent contradictions, and applies the text for teaching, admonishing, warning, and consoling God's people.
Paul's two letters to Timothy are among his "pastoral epistles," explaining the duties, powers, and promises given to Christian pastors and the people they serve. Pastors, seminarians, professors, and students of the Word will appreciate this commentary as one of the few on 1 & 2 Timothy that is written by an outstanding Lutheran theologian and translated into English.
