Believing that Scripture cannot be understood theologically unless it has first been understood grammatically, Harris provides a careful, thorough reading of the text of 2 Corinthians, engaging competing exegetical options along the way. This background work allows Harris then to discuss clearly the theology of 2 Corinthians, showing the relevance of Paul's teaching to Christian living and church ministry. Notable features of the commentary include a comprehensive introduction to 2 Corinthians, an expanded paraphrase of the letter that conveniently shows Harris's decisions on exegetical issues, a chronology of the relation of Paul, Timothy, and Titus to the Corinthian church, and an excursus on Paul's 'affliction in Asia' and its influence on his outlook and theology.
