Notes and Reflections on the Epistle to the Romans

Book excerpt: Sound and gracious Charles Spurgeon The study of inspired words is, when soberly pursued, a direct aid to spiritual profit; and a work of this description would be seriously defective, if in its construction this feature were entirely wanting. While, therefore, it holds an entirely subordinate place, there will be found, it is hoped, in the notes to this edition, a sufficient amount of verbal criticism to satisfy the fair demands of educated Christians. But it is better to offend a critic, than to disappoint a hungering soul. My desire is the profit of God's saints. Arthur Pridham
