Letter Of Paul To The Romans: The Epistle To The Romans Is Generally Regarded As Paul’s Great Letter

Although St. Paul was not one of the original 12 Apostles of Jesus, he was one of the most prolific contributors to the New Testament. Of the 27 books in the New Testament, 13 or 14 are traditionally attributed to Paul, though only 7 of these Pauline epistles are accepted as being entirely authentic and dictated by St. Paul himself.

The Epistle to the Romans is generally regarded as Paul’s greatest letter. It contains magnificent words of hope and challenge, but there are also parts of it that reflect Paul’s profound understanding of the Faith and which need some explanation. This book aims to help lay Christians read and understand the message of the epistle without being too perplexed by heavy scholarship.
