Rob Ventura's thoroughly Reformed exposition of Paul's greatest epistle is packed full of insights for preachers and teachers of God's Word. His approach strikes an excellent balance. He discusses the details of each verse without getting overly technical. He quotes great theologians of the Augustinian/Reformed tradition while letting the Scriptures speak for themselves. His commentary is exegetical, doctrinal, and warmly practical, containing helpful applications for both believers and unbelievers at the end of every section. This is a reliable and highly recommended exposition for people who want to be like Ezra in studying, obeying, and teaching God's Word (Ezra 7:10). -- Joel R. Beeke (President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan) In Rob Ventura's commentary on the book of Romans, he states that Paul's purpose in writing this letter to this church was fivefold: biographical, theological, practical, pastoral, and missional.
