My impression (only an impression) of the Romerbrief is that it's less of a commentary than using the text as a launching pad for his own sort of manifesto.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930200263533672575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33057643.post-43139419685745907982009-10-16T13:21:19.022-05:002009-10-16T13:21:19.022-05:00I haven't read the whole thing.

From what I've read, and I find this in his Romerbrief too, Barth does too much straying from the text for the sake of theological points and getting across his own agenda in light of the current theological scene. Occasional brilliant insights, and a huge sense of God and human sin, but not, in my opinion, exegesis. Same goes for Fowl's recent Phil 'commentary' exemplifying 'theological interpretation.' If I were preaching or teaching Phil, I'd make P. O'Brien and Calvin my top resources.Dane Ortlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17583355241279798089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33057643.post-78149505882434568062009-10-16T10:37:29.368-05:002009-10-16T10:37:29.368-05:00Oh!
