student or pastor with a small but growing library, as well as the pastor possessing an extensive one, will welcome the opportunity to secure this reprint of Spurgeon's catalog of Biblical commentaries and expositions.
Once you begin to dip into this volume it will become a faithful friend by your side, Worth its weight in gold! "New commentaries on the Bible abound, but often the cutting edge is dull, With few exceptions, the old works are better by far, Spurgeon's Commenting and Commentaries is invaluable for identifying the best works of past generations, many of which have been reprinted in our day, " Dr. Robert P. Martin This is a great resource, This was a joy to read! This book is Spurgeon's Goodreads feed, Invaluable in its day, still quite valuable in ours, A similar work produced today by a similar man would be a rare treat, and a very helpful resource, Somehow I doubt that Carson's short book on commentaries has the same room for wit that Spurgeon shows here, He gives an opening lecture recommending the best commentators, another on the act of commenting in the
service, and then surveys almostworks, giving a couple sentences of evaluation, both commendation and criticism.
He closes with an address on eccentric preachers, celebrating the diversity of preaching gifts God has given, as long as Christ is at the center.
Great stuff! Spurgeon gives some really good instruction concerning the use of Commentaries, His recommendations are quite antiquated but still rather solid, One cannot help but agree that Matthew Henry, Matthew Poole, Trapp, and Gill still give the student of the word a lot to think upon.
One point that Spurgeon makes that I find rather helpful is that the student should do his own work on the text, Think, write and pray over what you've gleaned in personal study and then consult the commentaries, His emphasis on Scripture Reading in public worship is absolute gold and his instruction on expounding the text, different from preaching the text, is really helpful.
