Former Principal of London Seminary, Philip Eveson, shows the unchanging relevance of the book of Chronicles for us today.
In today’s world, when Old Testament books like Chronicles are denied as being historically inaccurate, Eveson constantly shows us that the opposite is true. Throughout the commentary, he not only argues that it is free from historical error, but God–breathed, and therefore able to make us wise for salvation. Far from being irrelevant to the modern reader, Eveson brings helpful, insightful application from the Biblical narrative.
The genealogical line that the chronicler wrote of all looked to the Messiah. In reading Chronicles, so should we. The commentary is appropriate for all Christians who desire to see their Lord in all the scriptures. Eveson helpfully includes an application section with each passage that shows how it points to Jesus.
This book will be helpful to any readers who are seeking to find a deeper understanding of the books of Chronicles.
These two volumes display excellent linguistic knowledge, fine theological discernment, and most useful practical application of passages. This is what makes them so significant, and they will be welcomed as an outstanding contribution to the books of Chronicles. That Philip Eveson has taken years over this work means that we have the mature mind of the author, and so he presents us with an enlightening discussion that will be of assistance to many.
