More About the Author

Building upon a stream of exact exegesis beginning with the Reformation, MATTHEW HENRY (1662-1714) achieved a standard of applied analysis that has long marked his work as superior. He is best known for his seven-volume commentary on the Bible, which C. H. Spurgeon declared was "rich in analogies . . . superabundant in reflections . . . suitable to everybody, instructive to all."

This review is from: The Bethany Parallel Commentary on the New Testament: From the Condensed Editions of Matthew Henry (Hardcover)

I have found the Bethany Parallel Commentary of the New Testament to be a highly valuable study aid of the New Testament scriptures. I like the fact that 3 author groups are listed in a single volume as opposed to having three distinct volumes. In addition, there are mnay other notes and inserts from various other authors to assist in Bible study. This book is well worth the purchase. I highly recommend it.
