Book Review: Robert W. Yarbrough, The Letters to Timothy and Titus

Yarbrough’s acceptance of Pauline authorship and his approach to the controversial 1 Timothy 2:11-15 may cause some scholars to dismiss this excellent commentary.

His two criticisms (or maybe just clarifications) make me want to buy it!

Crazy that Wright and Dunn are considered “standard Pauline theology.”

At this point, I am not likely to invest in this volume unless someone could demonstrate that it is superior to or offers something which Bill Mounce’s 600-page volume in the Word Commentary series does not.

Yes, once you have Mounce, there is little need to go hunting about for the latest Pastoral Epistles commentary!

Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.
