Reviews
I have enjoyed every volume of the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary series that I have read thus far, and this work by Abner Chou is no exception. His vivid dealing of the text really brought this book to life, and really brought me a deep appreciation for lamentations. Several times I was reduced to weeping alongside Jeremiah as he described the destruction. If you are teaching Jeremiah and are looking for a solid exegetical work, I highly recommend this commentary. 5 stars.
