Ephesians / 2. Translation and commentary on chapters 4-6 by Barth, Markus
Cyril Barber - The Anchor Bible. 2 vols. Garden City, N.Y.: Doubleday and Co., 1974. †An extensive, critical
exposition combining a careful blend of historical-grammatical exegesis with a down-to-earth application of the
truth of the text to the condition of the church today. This is a work of real quality that expository preachers will
find most helpful.
James Rosscup - Ephesians is held to be by Paul, written from prison in Rome to Gentile Christians of the
church at Ephesus. Barth, Professor of New Testament at Basel, has provided a detailed and very highly
contributing commentary with footnotes and also bibliographies on each section of the epistle, acquainting the
serious student with scholarly work up to 1974.
James Rosscup - This publishes a Ph. D work at England’s University of Sheffield. Background chapters
deal with Christ’s descent and Moses’ ascent to heaven as related to rabbinic and other sources on Ps. 68,
then a chapter looks at the Eph. 4 passage. Harris sees Christ’s descent as between death and resurrection
and offers a history of interpretations favoring some version of such a view until the 20th century when more
have seen a first advent descent to the earth, or else a descent in the sense of providing gifts to the church,
the second of which he favors. He sees “lower parts of the earth” as lower parts, that is the earth, and Christ
as coming later to distribute gifts when He poured out the Spirit as in Acts 2:33. He seeks to relate a descent
of Christ in Eph. 4 with Ps. 68:19. Those seeking thorough consideration of the Eph. 4 text in relation to Ps. 68
will find much to weigh.

demonstrates how his attacks affect our emotional lives and, eventually, our walk with and work for the Lord.
