Analysis and commentaries Paul's Epistles (I and II Thessalonians, I Corinthians 1-7, Romans 1-7, Ephesians 1:1-14), first published in 1895 by Joseph Barber Lightfoot, more commonly known as J. B. Lightfoot. This is the Alpha Publications reprint.
From Wikipedia: Before Lightfoot's time, commentaries had frequently consisted either of short homilies on particular portions of the text, or of endeavors to enforce foregone conclusions, or of attempts to decide with infinite industry and ingenuity between the interpretations of former commentators. Lightfoot endeavored to make his author interpret himself, and by considering the general drift of his argument to discover his meaning where it appeared doubtful. Thus he was able often to recover the meaning of a passage which had long been buried under a heap of contradictory glosses, and he founded a school in which sobriety and common sense were added to the industry and ingenuity of former commentators.
