Critical and Exegetical Handbook to the General Epistles of Peter and Jude
Overview
The Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament, also known as “Meyer’s Commentary,” is considered one of the nineteenth century’s best English-language New Testament commentaries.
Joh. Ed. Huther’s Critical and Exegetical Handbook to the General Epistles of Peter and Jude includes detailed introductions to all three epistles.
With the Logos edition, you have instant access to a wealth of dictionaries, lexicons, and language reference tools. All Scripture passages link directly to the original-language Bible text and English translations, and double-clicking any Greek word automatically opens a lexicon to help you decipher the word’s meaning and context. This makes the Logos edition of the Critical and Exegetical Handbook to the General Epistles of Peter and Jude perfect for students, pastors, and scholars.

Top Highlights
“Jude does not more definitely state who this James was, whom he calls his brother. But doubtless he was that James who, from an early period, stood at the head of the church in Jerusalem.” (Page 382)
“The readers, for whom this Epistle was primarily intended, are described only in the most general terms, and neither their locality nor their condition is definitely stated.” (Page 383)
“This legend is found neither in the O. T. nor in the Rabbinical writings, nor in the Book of Enoch;” (Page 415)
“a forger would hardly have attributed his writing to Jude, a person otherwise so entirely unknown.” (Page 387)
“Since the fourth century it has been generally acknowledged as a genuine canonical writing.” (Page 387)
Dr. Huther’s commentaries on the Pastoral Epistles of St. Paul have made him well known, and we hail the volumes on the General Epistles of Peter, James, and Jude with great satisfaction.
