Product Description The Daily Bible Commentary A mere reading of the Bible fails to fulfill its ultimate purpose. The Bible’s message is meant to transform. The Daily Bible Commentary series distills the best of current scholarship into the straightforward language of a devotional. It skillfully opens each New Testament book and helps readers respond to the eternal truths within. General editors Richard A. Burridge, Dom Henry Wansbrough, and David Winter, together with other renowned scholars from an array of Christian traditions, provide helpful introduction, accessible explanation, and fresh meditations on individual passages. Balancing profound reflection with penetrating insight, the two-page daily readings engage the mind while never failing to touch the heart.

Reviews “This new commentary, the American edition of the British The Peoples Bible Commentary is written by well-known scholars from many denominations. Some have authored scholarly commentaries earlier on the books they treat here, e. g. James D. G. Dunn on Romans. Each book is divided into small sections; Acts, for example, has 87 divisions. Each division is given two pages of comment and concludes with brief suggestions for prayer or reflection. Each volume begins with a brief discussion of introductory material (authorship. occasion. etc.) and some provide a bibliography of resource materials. “This set belongs in parish libraries; each volume both informs and challenges readers to learn and reflect on the biblical message. It is a marvelous addition to our resources for biblical knowledge and personal devotion. “ —Currents in Theology and Missions
