Bible Question: Can anyone tell me the name of a good Bible Commentary? My friend has a book that you can use to look up a confusing verse, and once you find it the commentary explains it for you, but I don't remember the name of his book. I'd like one that covers the whole Bible rather than a few books. Thank you. |
Bible Answer: For one on the whole Bible, I would look for Matthew Henry's. It is an oldie but a goodie. If you are studying particular books, there are also a great deal of good, in-depth commentaries on specific books. I would recommend the Crossway Classic Commentary Series or Crossway's Preaching the Word commentary series. --Joe! |
