This was a dense book to read and is quite verbose. While reading it, however I could not help but notice how often it seemed that Henry seemed to be preaching and not simply expounding on the Bible. Also, there were parts where Henry doesnt seem to have logical consistency in his own exposition, does not catch logical inconsistencies in the bible, or does not seem to take other parts of the bible into account when expounding, and I would like to use his commentary on the story of Adam &One of the must have commentaries for any serious Bible student. Henry's depth and precision are remarkable as well as his ability to apply the word to the reader. If your library is to have but one bible commentary this is the one to have.
Great hard to get out of indexIncredible...hard to get out of index to commentary...bcc very in-depth have to read it several times but very different ideas than regular commentary
VERY HARD to navigate!Its possible I don't know what I'm doing so please if there is a better way let me know.When wanting to go to a specific chapter and verse I can use the table of contents or the location (the TofC is used by scrolling through about five verses at a time which begins at Genesis and the location search is 30,000 pages!) Why can't I search for a book, chapter, and/or verse?
I have used this standard Bible Commentary for many years, but only in the abridged editions available. Many Christian friends have informed me that these often miss out many important points that Matthew Henry makes to illuminate the Word of God and apply it to our hearts and life situations. So I have decided to take the plunge and managed to obtain the unabridged one volume version for $29.97 which I consider to be a great bargain for the golden nuggets it contains. If you are not very good
Fantastic reference to aid in the understanding of proper exegetical study, context, purpose, intent, and meaning of every passage in the Bible. A timeless work that will help you further appreciate the Holy Bible and will bring you to a deeper understanding for application of scripture in your daily life (and every time you encounter scripture).Matthew Henry was a master of study and his works have continued even today to appreciate the most important guide we have, the Holy Bible!Grace to you,
I read through this commentary over about a year and a quarter as I did a chronological reading of the Bible. I used the Olive Tree Bible Study app, which synched my daily readings with the commentary. This was a great way to read through the Bible. Henry's comments illuminate the text and place everything in the Old Testament in context of our understanding of Christ. I appreciated the insight into finding the savior in the OT. Henry's text makes for a great devotional, as it often challenges
