["Perry L. Stepp" <plstepp AT kcu.edu>]

Charles Talbert's commentary (in the Smyth and Helwys series) is very good
and beautifully done--pictures, graphics, typesetting.  

Talbert addresses theological questions new and old, (and perspectives new
and old), and is consistently judicious and enlightening.  And the print
volume comes with a .pdf of the entire commentary on cd, which is also nice.

Of course, I'm biased: Talbert is my doktorvater.

HH: I highly recommend Douglas Moo's Commentary on Romans.

                                        Yours,
                                        Harold Holmyard
