Unger's Commentary on the Old Testament


Book Description

This commentary on the entire Old Testament represents Merrill Unger at his very best. Just as he did in the classroom for over twenty years, Dr. Unger pours his heart and soul into teaching the Word. As one student said, Dr. Unger had a way of "being absorbed in the verses but then lifting the students into the heavens as to what the Lord was telling us in the words of the text."




Andrews Bible Commentary


Book Description

"The Andrews Bible Commentary is a concise exposition of Scripture written by faithful scholars of the Seventh-day Adventist Church as a companion to the Andrews Study Bible for lay readers, pastors, students, and teachers living in expectation of the Advent Hope. Each book has an introduction. The commentary text is approached from a passage-by-passage basis, rather than a verse-by-verse basis. This allows for more engagement with the extended thought of the passage. Other occasional features include general articles, short word studies and explanations set off from the regular text, and short essays on important topics related to the passage at hand. A personal relationship with Jesus transforms the way we read Scripture. We come to the Bible to inform and focus the worship of Jesus as Savior and Lord. And, in a special way, we come to the Bible to nourish hope in His Second Coming. We are not disappointed, for the theme of the great Day of the Lord and of Christ's Return permeates the entire biblical record. It is the purpose of the Andrews Bible Commentary to trace "the Blessed Hope" (Titus 2:13) in the pages of Scripture and to read all of the Bible in the light of that hope. This time between the First and Second Advents of Jesus is a challenging one. We need instruction and inspiration as we wait. What does the Bible have to say to believers who, with both longing and joy, anticipate the Return of Jesus? Answering that question is at the heart of the Andrews Bible Commentary, which seeks to instruct and inspire all who long for Christ's Second Coming"--
