There can be a faithful use of techniques like form criticism as well as an unfaithful use of it just as there is a faithful and unfaithful use of theology, i suppose just my 2 cents… discussion abt when and by whom has the book been written does not originate from liberal thought, the early church fathers engage in such discussions while working out the canonicity of certain books… ie whether hebrew was written by Paul or not? which John wrote the gospel that bear his name?

Some of the most known now include Donald Carson, Douglas Moo, Leon Morris, F.F. Bruce, Most modern commentaries are published as series, where publishers seeks out the scholars in each field for appropriate books. For example, if you did a PhD thesis on Hebrews and teach it at Theological seminary, chances are at one point of time you might be asked to write a commentary on Hebrews. Quality varies, and often people have to rely on external reviews to determine which commentaries are most useful. Some commentaries are quickly forgotten. To summarize, in Western Protestantism, commentaries are judged on the basis of how well they are written (in public opinion). In Eastern Orthodoxy, according to Osipov, it is largely based on the quality of life that the author led. Well, there are too many to mention.

I'm not a big specialist on Protestantism, you see... So if you could share the list of interpreters adopted by Protestantism and reasons why they were chosen, I would appreciate. - Fyodor If I may ask a question here… I’m not a big specialist on Protestantism, you see… So if you could share the list of interpreters adopted by Protestantism and reasons why they were chosen, I would appreciate.
