Jonah

I’m a pastor in a non-denominational church and recently preached through Jonah. I had the opportunity to use a number of commentaries, which are listed below. I wanted to take a moment and share my experience with these resources because bestcommentaries.com has been so incredibly helpful for me. I hope my insights can guide you as well! Here are the commentaries, ranked in order of preference (which ones I would recommend purchasing first) and organized into three tiers. I also hope others will follow my example and share their experiences, too. - - - Must-Buys JoAnna Hoyt (EEC) James Bruckner (NIVAC) Joyce Baldwin (McComiskey Set) James D. Nogalski (NICOT) Bryan Estelle (GAOT) - - - Almost Must Buys Leslie Allen (NICOT) Daniel Timmer (NSBT) O. Palmer Robertson O. Palmer Robertson Douglas Stuart (WBC) - - - Potential Must-Buys Gordon Keddie (WCS) Kevin Youngblood (ZECOT) Alexander, Baker, Waltke (TOTC) Sinclair Ferguson - - -

I have also mentioned McComiskey's work in several previous posts. The commentary on Jonah in this volume was written by Joyce Baldwin. Baldwin also questions the arguments of those who identify Jonah as a work of fiction. [Full Review]
