| Summary |
"The Expositor's Bible: The Epistle of St Paul to the Romans" by H. C. G. Moule is a theological commentary written in the late 19th century. This work provides a detailed exposition of the Epistle of St. Paul to the Romans, exploring themes of faith, righteousness, and the human condition in relation to divine grace. It aims to help readers understand the profound spiritual insights contained in this biblical text. At the start of the commentary, Paul is introduced as he composes a letter to the Roman Christians while staying in Corinth. The setting is contextualized with historical and political references, including the reign of Nero and Paul's own mission to Jerusalem. The author elaborates on Paul's relationship with the Christian community in Rome, expressing a longing to visit them and impart spiritual gifts. The opening emphasizes the importance of justification by faith, a central theme that Paul intends to address in his Epistle. The detailed preamble establishes the stakes of Paul's message, highlighting the tension between divine grace and human sin, illustrating the need for an understanding of God's righteousness amidst the complexities of human life.
