Though Tom Wright has written many fine monographs, a good biography of Paul, a whole series of William Barclay like small commentaries for the laity, what he had not done thus far is write major stand alone commentaries on NT books (he did write a helpful mid-level Romans commentary for the New Interpreter’s Bible series in 2002).  But now he has written a very fine, clearly written mid-level commentary on Galatians, and the only problem is we wish he had... Read more
