Reviews
I have loved using this commentary. Its predecessor in the TOTC was good, but I’ve found this even more helpful. Duguid’s engagement with wisdom literature, desire to allow the text to speak to human sexuality and his ability to still look to Christ is a fantastic combination. His approach feels clear, simple but faithful to the text and with enough insight and discussion to feel like secure without being burdened by too much detail. Highly recommend.
A superb short commentary. As well as providing a fresh translation, Duguid threads the needle between 'it's all about Jesus' and 'it's all about sex' really well.
Duguid is in my view excellent here - and for the length, it is a model commentary. Pair with Estes AOTC, and possibly Julian Hardyman's superb 'Jesus, Lover of My Soul'.
An excellent commentary. Duguid is clear, concise, and careful. His book is full of wonderful illustrations and helpful applications.
