I am currently in the process of preparing a series of expository messages on 2 Corinthians. I have been very impressed with the volumes in the New Testament Library series of commentaries, especially Matera's on 2 Corinthians. The format does not bury you in details, has helpful summaries at important points in the text and provides you with what is essential to understand the text. I am shocked that no one has yet reviewed this excellent commentary. If I could have given it a 4 1/2 rating that would have been my choice. Along with Garland's excellent commentary this would be my recommendation to the lay person, pastor, or academic seeking help in this most personal of Paul's letters.

They were all ok. Everything I purchased was to my liking. My husband enjoys reading & enjoyed the books. Satisfied.
