Book Description
In 1969 the Trust published the first of Geoffrey Wilson’s popular commentaries on the New Testament Letters. In many ways they were a totally new concept in evangelical literature. Beginning life as ‘Reformed Digests’ written in a popular style, which gave readers the fruits of the study of many volumes, they have grown over the years into commentaries in their own right, and have been enjoyed throughout the English-speaking world. Now for the first time the Trust has brought together, in two attractive volumes.
- Volume 1- Romans, 1 & 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians
- Volume 2 -Philippians, Colossians, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, and Revelation.

John Smith sam –
WHAT A FIND. Geoffrey B. Wilson’s 1977 ‘Romans – A digest of Reformed Comment’ through the Banner of Truth Trust is a unique study. Thorough and comprehensive and dissecting each verse – a reminder of how we used to study. I also just found your Banner of Truth (1955) and am subscribing.

Donald Granger –
I picked up Wilson’s two volumes to supplement my reading through the New Testament this year. I suspected they would be brief, cursory summaries and relatively lightweight.
Not so. Wilson has a talent for simple, yet thorough summation and is a gifted expositor. Verse-by-verse interpretations are supplemented by the comments of other scholars and theologians at the appropriate places. One comes away with the feeling that one has understood the epistle and its logical sequence of thought.
These books are essential for my library.
Richard C Ross –
These are useful and usable books; strongly recommended. But what a sorry spectacle we find in the comments on Colossians 1.19: marred by the selected comments of John Murray. For the sake of a peculiar idea of sovereignty, certainly not the sovereignty of love, it is insisted, in typical Calvinesque fashion (a philosophy of ‘limited possibilities’) ‘that this verse cannot mean’ what Paul wrote. We are told this ‘fullness’ can’t be ‘all fullness’. But what greater glorification of the Father and the Son than that ‘it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell’! Within the immanent Trinity no greater act of love is conceivable; no greater delight possible. Nothing to surpass the infinite self-gift of the Father’s infinite love for the Son and the Son for the Father: ‘all fullness’! (Read John Owen on Hebrews 1.3 and Jonathan Edwards) Only a thorough distortion of the doctrine of the Father’s begetting of the Son could recoil from transcendent beauty! The all-glorious perichoretic circularity of love within the trinitarian relations; Calvin may not have liked the Nicene Creed (due to its ‘battology’!) but Scripture affirms it: ‘God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God’.
