Summary: Could Have Been Meatier
Comment: Among Evangelical New Testament Scholars, I. H. Marshall is among the best. His works continue to provide important opportunities for reflection. However, here in his commentary on Luke Marshall leaves his remarks on the text incomplete. His exposition on the greek text is good, yet for the pastor who is looking for help as Sunday draws ever more close, Marshall is less helpful. Written before narrative approaches became in vogue, Marshall's historical/ redaction approach is somewhat dated. His comments are thorough, his remarks evangelical and orthodox, his outlook on Luke, all good, however, this commentary could have been better.

Summary: Frustrating commentary
Comment: I am sorry, but I cant give this commentary a high mark. I am not unused to technical commentaries, I use the Word- and NIGTC-series alot. But I am always disappointed with this one. He puts alot of effort into synoptic questions and textvariants (which I am not interested in), but not much into what Luke really meant, the theology of the text and how it fits into the doctrinal big picture. I like technical commentaries because they analyze the meaning of important greek words, but this one does not. So now I am still lacking a good commmentary on Luke (Geldenhuys and Ellis wont do either). Thinking of getting the NICNT one.

Summary: a brilliant commentary on Luke
Comment: Marshall does a splendid job in his commentary giving the reader a better understanding of the theology of Luke through his meticulous analysis of the Greek. Even the devotional reader who does not know any Greek will be blessed by this volume for the detailed information it contains. This volume can be ranked alongside those by Geldenhuys, Godet and Plummer. I strongly recommend the reader to purchase this volume along with Marshall's 'Luke: Historian and Theologian.'
