Revealing a fine affinity with Paul's thought, Theodoret succeeds in his aim of "demonstrating the profundity of the apostle's wisdom and stripping away the veils of the writing." Now that the work appears in English, it would be to the benefit of modern commentators to sample Theodoret's approach to Paul, even if the theological positions of the Antiochene school led the bishop to wrestle with some of his subject's cherished convictions.

One of the most important Patristic commentaries is now available in English. Volume  One contains commentaries on Romans, 1 & 2 Corinthians.
