Review 36: Commentary on the Pastoral Epistles (Patrick Fairbairn)

For combined devotional and apologetic value this is THE BEST commentary ever written on the pastorals.

The text is approached with reverence, and wisdom upon the foundation of biblical theology.

On the apologetic front, Fairbairn takes on those who deny Pauline authorship, and he takes them to task. His reasoning cannot, and never will, be answered.

Fairbairn stands uniquely in Christian history among those intellectuals who also were able to shed devotional light.
