Synopsis:
As the anticipated one-volume edition of the classic devotional
commentary, this single book preserves, in condensed form, all
that is most valuable and timely in the original multi-volume
edition.
Description:
Time has sealed the reputation of Matthew Henry's classic
commentary as a rich source of insight into God's word. Three
centuries after its first publication, it remains one of the
best-loved, most popular commentaries ever written. However,

Henry's day have taken on different meanings today. In addition,
Henry's often wordy reflections are generations removed from the
crisp style that communicates most effectively to contemporary
readers.
The
Zondervan NIV Matthew Henry Commentary is a masterful response
to these concerns. It delivers the heart and soul of Henry's
incomparable writings in a style that is easy to read and
understand.
