Editorial Reviews

Lanier’s commentary on Luke is exegetically precise, theologically illuminating, historically situated, and informed by important scholarship on Luke’s Gospel. Lanier brings together the worlds of reception history, exegesis, and theological reflection in a masterful way in his exposition of Luke’s Gospel, while both prioritizing Luke’s voice throughout the commentary and while explaining Luke’s message with clear prose. Scholars, students, and pastors will all benefit from this commentary.” – Jarvis J. Williams, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
 
“Among other contributions, Lanier’s Luke contextualizes the third Gospel well inside the Four-Gospel collection that begins our New Testament and its Greco-Roman literary background. His interpretations are reasonable and edifying.” – John DelHousaye, Professor of Bible, Arizona Christian University 
 
“What a terrific commentary! Luke’s gospel is difficult to interpret for a host of reasons, yet Gregory Lanier has gifted the church with an exceptional commentary that makes it come alive. Written in engaging prose and filled with helpful charts, this volume should be on the shelves of pastors, students, and lay people as they journey into the vast terrain of the Third Gospel.” –  Benjamin L. Gladd, Executive Director, The Carson Center for Theological Renewal
 
“I always appreciate an academically-rooted commentary that remains accessible and beneficial. As one who is preaching regularly now as well, I have come to greatly value a commentary that is succinct, easy to read, and clear. Lanier’s commentary on Luke excels in all of these categories. I will be adding it to my stack of go-to volumes on the Third Gospel.” – Jonathan T. Pennington, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
