As a writer and scholar whose career spanned the latter part of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, Sir William Ramsay's keen insights into first-century culture and geography have always been valued by biblical scholars of succeeding generations. While some of Ramsay's mo more widely known works are available in reprint editions, his journal and periodical articles have largely been lost to the general Christian reader.

Now for the first time in book form, Ramsay's series of articles on the Pastoral Epistles are once again available. The original studies, which appeared in the Expositor in 1909-11, have been prepared for publication by Mark Wilson. The text has been edited for continuity and changes in terminology without altering the essential content of Ramsay's work.

"My debt to the writings of Sir William Ramsay.... I am repeatedly amazed by scholars of a later date who seem unaware of the contributions of peculiar value which he made to certain areas of New Testament study."

-F. F. Bruce
