5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Research
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2010
Verified Purchase
I used this book as a reference for a college religion class. It gave a great deal of explanation for my research paper passage. The book is very thick, but the writing is small, like in a Bible or dictionary. However, the paper is very sturdy and not easily torn. There are also some great pictures. My purchase was a used library copy with the dust jacket still intact. It is still very usable with no tears, missing pages, or turned corners.

Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2012

The amount of biblical scholarship in this book is excellent. The line is not conservative nor extra liberal, it is just right. It has many articles treating the theological, historical, textual, and other subjects. I use it daily for my studies and it is a great aid to my Bible. For the price of a used copy, it cannot be beaten.

4.0 out of 5 stars I think it does a great job, considering it is a one-volume compilation
Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2018
Verified Purchase
I have had this commentary for 1.25 years. Although it is older than my other commentaries, I have found it to have more in-depth explanations to scripture passages that many modern commentaries brush off. It is not my primary, but it is in the top 5 of my go-to commentaries. In addition, I think it does a great job, considering it is a one-volume compilation.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book review
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2013
Verified Purchase
Very detailed but clearly from a prove it to me before I believe it view. Frankly, I much prefer the view that God said it and I have prayed for Him to help me to understand it and use it. So, I am in a receiving mode to begin with instead of a cautions and slow to believe view. Yes, I think questions are crucial and I ask loads of them. Also, the Jewish method of teaching centers asking good and directed questions. So, yes I am reading this commentary but I greatly prefer my other two commentaries.

This was a required reference for a course I took, but it has become a daily tool and a wonderful reference. The commentaries are thoroughly researched and thought through. So glad I have this tool.

No matter whether you are a new christian or history buff..this book is for you. My sister has this book and after reading through it I simply fell in love with the book. It is well written and does not challenge you to do exhaustive research. If you teach Sunday School...you want this book to enhance your class and add to your personal growth.//Chuck

Was super excited to receive this commentary. Scripturally it is not as deep as I had thought it would have been, much like comments you would find within a study bible. The plus side is that the Apocrypha is included and the historical tidbits toward the end. In any case it is a decent study guide for the price and the condition was pretty good too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Got The Book
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2010

This reference book was received as promised. The seller was correct in his description and I'm happy to add the book to my collection. Domestic use of DHL is a poor choice these days because they no longer serve the U.S. market. Delivery time is lengthened when all domestic packages get routed to Kentucky where they are passed to the USPS. The tracking trail stops and you cross your fingers that your package will be dropped on your doorstep at some point by your postman .

Dust jacket with tears, but this doesn't detract from the amazing content and scholarship. I use it every day for reference, and regularly appreciate the apposite and insightful commentary. The more I have used this volume, the more I appreciate the depth of commentary, and well aimed pithy contributions to one's everyday life through Bible reading and study. I am very happy to have discovered this volume.
