Overview
This seven-volume devotional commentary by renowned preacher Frederick Brotherton Meyer divides Scripture into small, manageable sections and offers Meyer’s insightful reflections on each section. As Meyer himself states in the introduction, “There is . . . nothing more vital to an accurate knowledge of the Bible than the good old practice of reading it thoughtfully and steadily through with such brief notes as this [collection] provides.”

He provides an introduction and outline for each book in the Bible, and review questions are included “to enable readers to sum up and better preserve in memory what they have learned.” Each volume in the collection also contains Illustrations of Bible scenes by celebrated artists and contemporary artists of the day.
