As the nation’s most popular annual Bible commentary for more than 2 decades, the Standard Lesson Commentary provides 52 weeks of study in a single volume and combines thorough Bible study with relevant examples and questions.
The SLC, available in the King James Version and New International Version Bible translations, is based on the popular Uniform Series, also called the International Sunday School Lessons (ISSL).

Top Highlights
“the validity of the people’s actions is due to the Lord’s direction.” (Page 296)
“Before we fault cultural shifts for our fragile relationships, we should recall the opening pages of Scripture. Sin’s curse disrupted all relationships, especially our relationship with God. Alienated from God, humanity hatched countless false religions throughout the world, each searching for truth about the Creator.” (Page 3)
“Because of God’s grace, everyone can experience peace with Him.” (Page 108)
“The flaws in Lot’s character seen in this account should not draw our attention away from the strength of God’s character. Lot’s behavior may puzzle us, but God’s behavior shouldn’t. The goodness of His mercy and the terror of His judgment both stand out. We are to be genuinely grateful that on the cross Jesus took the judgment that we deserved so that God could display His mercy to us.” (Page 15)
“Shiloh is where the tabernacle was set up once Joshua and the Israelites had taken control of the promised land” (Page 19)

Fantastic addition to library. Makes lesson and notes preparation so much easier. I like having it in this form rather than the hard copy. Thank you for your hard work.
