Excellent succinct overview of key points of distinction between these commentaries and this view of the millennium which is new to me. Thank you very much Daniel.
Thank you again. Many years ago I read (now twice) George Caird's fascinating and accessible commentary and so enjoyed it (I actually had a 2nd year college room exactly opposite his study, maybe 20m away, so I could see him at work from time to time! I didn't know at the time that he was supervising Tom Wright's DPhil on Romans but I remember seeing a huge pile of books that had arrived for him - presumably in hope of a review - in the porters' lodge. Quite a call on his valuable time.) The various shorter commentaries available seem to me all much the same having read a few. IMO Tom Schreiner is worthy of great respect with his brilliant (both) commentaries on Romans, his Theologies (and now his son Patrick's on Matthew's Gospel which is not an easy read but ... for another time), and who honestly hasn't changed his/her mind on points of doctrine? Especially on this one. Is this another go-to NT commentary from the pen of TS? Probably then.
Thank you so much for this video. I ordered the Osborne volume to add to my library. I look forward to digging into it.
Because it was ‘replaced’, Osborne’s volume is on a great sale. I picked a copy up. Thanks for explaining the differences, it was super helpful!
Thank you very much for doing this video 📹

Thank you Daniel.
recht aufschlussreich
Tolstad's commentary on Revelation for Paideia also argues that John is telling the same story from different angles, as if looking at a series of parallel lines. It gives for a fascinating and helpful reading (Tolstad does a good job vindicating God from the critics who see Revelation as a paroxysm of blood and Christian resentment). I have Schreiner's commentary and it's okay reading. I also enjoy Schnabel's writing as well, at least the two books of his that I have. I have no firm leanings one way or another on matters beyond my ultimate knowledge, and enjoy a variety of viewpoints. God wins in the end. That's the most important takeaway.
I just finished reading both of these! I’d also add that everyone should have access to issue 64 of JETS because it’s over 2 years old.
INteresting. I was looking at JEETS and a layman seems I am out of luck on Membership. But I will have to take a look at some of these volumes all can read. Having no background may make my understanding of this Journal near impossible. But it does not mean I will not look carefully and read what is presented. With no Greek or Hebrew Background Odds are this is a journal that will not Be of value as studying The Word.
I'm very skeptical.
Is this one different from his (GO) verse by verse Revelation commentary?
Just what we need. An excellent and accurate commentary on Revelation replace by a new false view. Keeping with a trend toward biblical revisionism. When will people realize a new biblical interpretation is just a wrong one. Schreiner doesn’t seem to know what Revelation says and is now on his 3rd different viewpoint. Perhaps he should figure it out before writing commentaries.
Romans 7:14 "For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold as a slave under sin (governed by ego desire). For I do not understand what I am doing, because I do not practice what I want to do, but I do what I hate (no discernment) . Romans 7:18 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For the desire to do what is good is with me, but there is no ability to do it." Ego has willingness but no discernment. Schreiner is clueless.
Neither are good. I read them both and they don’t understand the Jewish perspective either author. You can glean some small information but it’s hitting some trees and always missing the forest
Schriener keeps changing his mind. He can't be trusted! And Baker seems to be publishing more Roman Catholic books then ever.
