THE PASTORAL EPISTLES
A. T. Hanson
The critical problems of the Pastorals, their authorship and Pauline connection, undoubtedly tended, in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century discussion, to overshadow their splendid record of Christian experience and witness during a critical and formative period of the church's life. Professor Hanson's previous studies of the Pastorals, and, in particular, his exegetical expertise, make for a well-balanced treatment of critical problems and for a sound exposition of the actual contents and relevance of these classic documents of Christian faith and order in the early church.
