Description

The Classic Bible Commentary is an essential collection of history's finest commentaries in one volume.

Charles Spurgeon's advice to aspiring preachers was to "read admirable commentaries." Indeed, it was Spurgeon who first drew up a definitive list of Bible commentaries that every preacher and teacher of God's Word should own.

Now classic works on all 66 books of the Bible—including most of the ones Spurgeon recommended—have been collected into this one exciting volume. Though the language has been edited where necessary for the modern reader, the teaching of these master preachers has been preserved, as well as the dignity of their original prose. From John Calvin on Genesis to Matthew Henry on Revelation, you will find the biblical insights of many of Christian history's leading figures within these pages—at a fraction of the cost of buying these commentaries individually. More than an aid to preachers, this is an essential resource for any serious Christian's library.

One of the advantages of having a one volume Bible commentary by a variety of authors is that the contributors who have written exceptionally good commentaries on particular Bible books can be selected. For example, included are Martin Luther's commentary on Galatians, and J.B. Lightfoot's commentaries on Colossians and Philemon which remain in a class of their own.
