- Ambrosiaster is the name given to the writer of a commentary on St Paul's epistles, "brief in words but weighty in matter," and valuable for the criticism of the Latin text of the New Testament. The commentary itself was written during the papacy of Pope Damasus I, that is, between 366 and 384, and is considered an important document of the Latin text of Paul before the Vulgate of Jerome, and of the interpretation of Paul prior to Augustine of Hippo.

The author had used "Ambrosiaster" frequently in his ACCS on Romans and now presents the whole commentary. Written in the fourth century by an anonymous individual, the commentary does well at treating the letter in context and anticipates a lot of more modern methods of handling the text.
The substance of the commentary is good for consideration of a fourth-century understanding of Romans - 2 Corinthians. Not all of his comments are accurate, but still much worthy of consideration.
