For Catholics who do not wish to pay a fortune for scholarly technicalities and bloviations-these books are for you! Of course, if you want to read Father Brown's 800(+) page behemoth on the Johnnine Letters, and pay 55 bucks for the paperback version, you go right ahead. Wear a back brace.

Another pro-authenticity commentary is Luke Timothy Johnson's (also Catholic) Anchor Yale Bible volume on First and Second Timothy. Looks good!
