Heinrich Meyer’s New Testament Commentary Available for Free Download
The Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament was the life-work of German scholar Heinrich August Wilhelm Meyer [1800-1873]. Starting when he was 27 and finishing when he was 72, Meyer completed and then revised 16 volumes on the New Testament, the remaining five being completed by close friends (Gottlieb Lünemann, Johann Ed. Huther and Friedrich Düsterdieck). Skilled in multiple languages Meyer has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the scholarly literature of his day and used this to bridge the gap between the Academy and the Church. A theological conversative, his commentary is still greatly valued today by scholars and ministers with a good grasp of the Koine Greek.
