Reviews
It is a brilliant commentary, full of detail, rigour, beauty and insight. I have read this devotionally and am so grateful to Stott's brilliant work!
Carson says that these volumes “will be treasured by preachers.” With warm clarity typical of Stott, these volumes show how the gospel orders Christian life in the church, the family, and the world.

I’ve come to love Stott’s “message of” commentaries, having used them for classes on Romans (amazingly helpful) and the Letters of John (considerably weaker). He knows when to dive a little deeper into a subject, when to bring in just the right amount of background or context, and when to gloss over something to keep the main point clear. His theological judgment is, with a couple of fairly well known exceptions, quite sound. Where Stott excels all other expositors is in breaking the material down into a clear outline, with units of thought flowing smoothly for teaching or preaching. He usually makes these divisions with deep insight, and even when he forces things a little bit, it’s obvious that he’s doing so to deliver the best possible learning experience.
