From the Publisher


All the books in the Reformed Expository Commentary series are accessible to both pastors and lay readers. Each volume in the series provides exposition that gives careful attention to the biblical text, is doctrinally Reformed, focuses on Christ through the lens of redemptive history, and applies the Bible to our contemporary setting.
To the people of Judah, distressed by changing political realities, it seemed that God had lost control of the situation.
Practical, devotional, and expositional, this commentary delves into the ways these three prophets point us to the sufferings of Christ, the forgiveness of God, and anticipated glories to come.
- Zephaniah warned of imminent judgment & pointed to hope close at hand: God is both Judge and a Refuge from judgment.
- Haggai declared that God’s struggling people needed to reorder their priorities and invest in building the Lord’s house so that God’s renewed presence in their midst would bring renewed blessing.
- Malachi, when doubt of the Lord’s love led the people into sin, addressed their concerns and failings one by one. God wouldn't abandon those who feared him, despite a history of rebellion against him.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“God’s imminent judgment on Judah’s apostasy. The rebuilding of the temple. The charges to Zerubbabel. Withholding tithes. Offering lame animals for sacrifices. The roles of the Levitical priesthood. Short-lived reformations. Chronological markers. The Feast of Tabernacles. Edom’s final demise. An oracle for Assyria. How do these ancient events and seemingly inapplicable topics apply to the church today? In their clear and convicting expositions of Zephaniah, Haggai, and Malachi, Duguid and Harmon show how these neglected books of the Bible are both relevant and refreshing. Through the lens of the gospel, they showcase how themes like repentance and restoration, election and hope, and judgment and mercy come together in the cross and consummation of Christ. Every pastor who seeks to teach the whole counsel of God’s ever living and always active word, should have this splendid commentary in his library.” -- Douglas Sean O'Donnell, Senior Pastor, Westminster Presbyterian Church, Elgin, Illinois
“Iain Duguid takes us on a delightful journey through some less-trodden paths of the Old Testament in a way which is warm-hearted, theologically rich, pastorally sensitive and above all, Christ-honoring. It is not easy to write in a way which marries rigorous scholarship and searching application, but this volume pulls this off with some style! This is the work of a true pastor-scholar whose touch is both light and penetrating, and which always oozes with concern for the glory of God expressed through the loving faithfulness of his people.” -- Gary Millar, Principal, Queensland Theological College, Spring Hill, Australia

To be biblical - that is to pay careful attention to the text and exposit the Scriptures. There is less focus on the original language and structure and more focus on the story that the passage is telling.
Unashamedly Doctrinal - this series approaches the text from a Reformed perspective, as found in the Bible.
Redemptive-Historical - this means that they believe in the unity and continuity of the Bible, and interpret it in a Christ centered approach for all of Scripture.
Practical - by applying the truths found in the Scriptures to contemporary challenges in life.
This past year the series won World Magazine's Commentary Series of the Year, a well deserved honor.
The most recent volume in the series is on the minor prophets Zephaniah, Haggai, and Malachi. The minor prophets are books of the bible that can often become overlooked, especially for more in depth study. Even those who may have a good knowledge of the themes of the books of the minor prophets may have never spent the time working through them verse by verse, or listening/preaching through entire books. The authors, Iain Duguid and Matthew Harmon share this sentiment when they say that, "the books of Zephaniah, Haggai, and Malachi are not typically high on most readers' lists of favorite books of the Bible." These books are important for the church to know and for preachers preach through as they "speak to us of judgement and hope, of challenge and blessing, and will point us again and again to the sufferings of Christ and the anticipated glories that will follow, just as Luke 24 told us." Since all Scripture is profitable and all Scripture points to Christ it is helpful to spend time in these books of the Bible that do not receive as much attention.
Duguid and Harmon provide excellent commentary on these books of the Bible bringing out the themes and cultural context for the reader to gain a better understanding of these three books. Any preacher who uses this commentary to supplement his sermon preparation on these books will be greatly blessed. Any serious student of the Bible who wants a better understanding of these books will also be blessed. These themes tie in with all of Scripture and the authors do commendable work in drawing these connections out. This series has become a go to commentary of mine for any study and this most recent volume adds another great work to this excellent series.
I received a copy of this commentary from P&R Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book and the thoughts expressed are my own
It is a great read
