I love Ridge’s books. He gives such great insight and references. I really love reading his books because I get so much more out of my scripture study. I actually wished he would give more sometimes. Very helpful. Recommend.
Good for help with basic understanding and some definitions. Definitely didn’t agree with all of his “interpretations.” It’s good for a seminary-student-level of inquiry. I would recommend Skinner or Welch for deeper scholarship.
