Reviews

[Jon Anderson]

Read for Sunday School preparation in Winter, Spring, and Summer of 2018; read pp.1-105 for sermon series on Luke 1-2 (Fall 2022) and for Luke 3-6 (Fall 2023). Hughes is good for getting overall sense of passage and for illustrations and applications. While it is clear there is exegesis behind it, one would need to complement with a more technical commentary
