James & Jude

The College Press NIV commentary on James and Jude by Gary Halloway is a very nice commentary. The commentary is very useful for the preacher as well as the average Christian. This commentary is not very technical but is well done. Greek words that are mentioned are presented in the Greek as well as transliterated. After each section there is also a “Section Summary and Application” which contains devotional thoughts and possible applications. These sections are not very large and so the commentary is not, in my opinion a devotional commentary but a middle of the road one. Not overly simplistic but also not overly technical.
