'Each chapter begins with a brilliantly sketched account of the city in which the church addressed lived, followed by an exposition of the Letter to that church, concise, well-illustrated and written in an arresting style. His gift of bringing out the valuable meanings of Greek words is particularly helpful. This book will be a boon to teachers, preachers and Bible readers.' Baptist Times 'Done with admirable clarity and most interestingly. It is just the kind of book to help anyone who wishes to lead a Bible Study Group.' Expository Times 'Dr Barclay brings to his task the experience of the tried preacher as well as the learning of the scholar.' British Weekly 'A direct and devotional commentary such as could be used in any parish group.' View Review
