A New Experience

Some people were born to be readers and some people were not. 
Reading has always been a pleasure -in a variety of forms- novels, non-fiction writing, essays, poems, blogs, and daily comics.  Today, a commentary can be added to the list.
Commentary reading (this one on the book of Romans) is not for everyone, although is highly recommended, particularly for those who preach or teach the Bible.  A whole new world of insight, logistics, and dots and tittles whelming to a climax of thought, was opened through the experience. 
Thank-you is extended to the professor who deemed this exercise necessary, for it would not have been embarked upon without prompting.  Every year it is intended that a commentary will be added to the reading list.
Grace comes from the most unexpected places.
