Dear Wes,
Earle's treatment is along a different vein than Abbot's. His
discussion is not as extensive, but serves as a good springboard to
other literature on the subject. Earle cites about 12 scholars
including Westcott-Hort (who held divergent views on Rom. 9:5), James
Denney, and Meyer. He also quotes Sanday and Headlam who devote five
pages to the punctuation of Rom. 9:5.
Sincerely,
E. Foster
