The Understanding the Bible Commentary Series helps readers navigate the strange and sometimes intimidating literary terrain of the Bible. These accessible volumes break down the barriers between the ancient and modern worlds so that the power and meaning of the biblical texts become transparent to contemporary readers. The contributors tackle the task of interpretation using the full range of critical methodologies and practices, yet they do so as people of faith who hold the text in the highest regard. Pastors, teachers, and lay people alike will cherish the truth found in this commentary series.

Не особено обемист, но доста добър коментар особено що се отнася до препратките към извънбиблейски източници. Като цяло го намирам по-добър от коментара на Р. Стейн, който завърших преди него.Известен недостатък е, че като писан доста отдавна разчита на доста стара (това не винаги означава остаряла или подвеждаща) литература.
