Matthew

When the Holman New Testament Commentary set came out I had high hopes but after purchasing Matthew, Mark, and Revelation I found it was not quite what I had hoped for. The Holman New Testament Commentary on Matthew, Mark, and Revelation are more of a devotional type commentary although they say it is for “Pastors, teachers, Sunday school leaders and others…” I found the information to be more useful for the Christian looking for a devotional read but the preacher may not find much help in these volumes. If you are looking for something to help you understand the text of scripture then you would do better to pick up a different commentary but if on the other hand you want a devotional commentary you might want to pick this one up.
