Overview

Study the unabridged version of this popular Bible study tool. Written by three pastor-scholars in the late nineteenth century, A Commentary, Critical, Experimental, and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments was a favorite resource of C. H. Spurgeon and other evangelical preachers. Each volume begins with introductions to the biblical books, followed by the text of scripture and verse-by-verse commentary. The authors succinctly comment on nuances in the original languages and historical details. They survey varying scholarly opinions without talking over readers’ heads.
