A good solid introductory level commentary

To appreciate this commentary, and we should, one needs to understand the purpose in writing it. Tyndale designed this series of commentaries to be a solid introductory level commentary to encourage and enlighten the average layperson as they begin to truly study the Bible as opposed to just reading it. This commentary more than adequately fills the role it was designed to. I am using it with a men's discipleship group I lead as an adjunct to the series I am preaching in the church I pastor. The men have continually been positively motivated and encouraged by Dr. Morris' scholarship. I would recommend this commentary for those who are interested in becoming students of God's word. It is an excellent introductory commmentary to aid in your study. Pastor Walt Mayhew Christian Community Church Derby, CT

Compact, Reliable, To the Point

Leon Morris just went to be with the Lord. I thank God that we have his books so that he still speaks, even though he is gone. This commentary on Luke is like all of Morris' work in that he interprets the scripture well, and he is easy to follow. This is not one of his major opuses, it is a hand held paperback commentary. But Morris has a good understanding of Luke's gospel, and it will come in handy for the Sunday school teacher and the pulpit preacher. I still use it to this day. I rarely ever preach from the NT without seeing what Dr. Morris has written on the subject. This is quality, inexpensive scholarship. Pick this up and add it to your library, or buy a copy for your church.
