I have some u2u's and email regarding my new avatar picture, asking who it is. Well it's FF. Bruce. So just out of curiosity I was wondering how many people are familiar with his face or even his name and fruit... it's simple, yes or no.

I had the honour to talk to him once on the phone, I asked him about two parts of Scripture. Very humble man.

What Church did he serve in? I haven't been able to find out anything about his core beliefs.

His commentary on Hebrews and his Greek commentary on Galatians are two of my most cherished books.

 

[Poimen]

yes

 

[PuritanCovenanter]

Yes, Commentaries and Manuscript work.

 

[BrianBowman]

Yes,

Commentary, and conservative Textual Criticism. F.F. Bruce "rocks". He was affiliated with "The Brethren" who have roots in JN Darby and Dispensationalism. I've not read enough of him to know how this affected his writings. Bruce was a great scholar. Read about him:
