John Brown of Wamphray's commentary on Romans has been called, "perhaps the best exposition of the Epistle yet to be found" (J.W.C., cited in the Johnston's Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 341).

Charles Spurgeon comments, "By a Calvinist of the old school. Heavy, perhaps, but precious." At the very least it should be considered a classic Scottish Covenanter's commentary.

John Brown of Wamphray was one of Samuel Rutherford's favorite students. He was ejected in 1662, imprisoned and cruelly treated until he suffered exile to the Netherlands -- all for steadfastly maintaining the principles of the Covenanted Reformation. In fact, A.N. in the preface to this volume notes that, among other things, "the particular grounds and causes why he was thus inhumanly and barbarously treated, was his strict attachment to, and maintaining the binding force and perpetual obligations of the nation's solemn vows and covenants; his refusing acceptation of the then sinful Indulgences; ... his public and zealous testifying against licentious tolerations," etc.

While in exile he wrote thirteen books. Johnston notes that Brown of Wamphray "has been regarded the most important theologian of the second period of Scottish Presbyterianism" (Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 339). This commentary on Romans gives us a good indication as to why Brown is so highly regarded among faithful Calvinists, godly historians and numerous commentators.
