The Expository Times "Combines sensible exegesis, a careful survey of prominent theological themes, and arguments in support of Pauline authorship. It is beautifully written, and its insights will be warmly welcomed by scholars and those involved in professional ministry alike. . . . Campbell's commentary on Ephesians will replay close study for many decades to come. It is balanced and highly usable treatment of this theologically rich letter." "Ephesians presents Paul's most mature thought on several subjects, including union with Christ, the church in God's purposes, and spiritual warfare. It also offers some unique interpretive challenges in terms of historical context and literary features. Campbell's characteristic attention to detail and judicious judgment produce an interpretation of the letter that is both exegetically convincing and theologically rich. Highly recommended for scholars, students, and pastors." --Brian Rosner, Ridley College "Campbell's commentary bears all the hallmarks of the Pillar series: clear exposition, grounded in adequate research, with attention both to the details of the text and to the broader argument. A distinguishing feature of this commentary is its more informal English style, which communicates very effectively and makes reading the commentary a refreshing experience." --Douglas J. Moo, Wheaton College
