Customer Reviews

Poorly made

Very very bad type set, so small print that it was difficult to read even with reading glasses. I through it away.

Deceitful

I received one book of commentary Job to Malachi. Even though it said I would receive “commentary on the WHOLE Bible”.

Very Very Very deceptive Marketing

Received just 1 book, but the heading makes it look like you get all six! Dissatisfied customer here!

Missing 5 books, only received 1 from the set

I purchased the 6 Volume Set as shown on the photograph but only received 1 book. I am missing 5 other volumes. Not cool

The book came in good time and in the condition stated. I would recommend ordering from this seller.

Condensed version of Matthew Henry's commentary

This book has been condensed to fit six volumes into one handy book. The book is still pretty thick but surprisingly light for its size. Sometimes, when Matthew Henry expresses the same thought in two or more different ways, Mr. Church cuts down to a single sentence. However he has preserved the meaning, but does not necessarily expand on the thought. He also omits references to other Bible verses that might bear on a particular commentary to save space. Since the complete volumes are not as portable, or not as readable [the unabridged one volume version], this volume is a good compromise. It is like having a pastor handy to answer questions about Bible verses, in one lightweight volume. Note that the two column format is more readable, than the 3 column format of the unabridged one volume version, although the font is still pretty small.

Highly recommended reference

I haven't read this from cover to cover. I don't think that is the purpose of the book. I have used this as a reference for my bible readings. I find the info in this book to be extremely helpful. I have a commentary Bible which is helpful but this book goes a step further. I recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about what passages mean. Matthew Henry is the one to read.

just when i thought christianity was dead

Matthew Henry's commentaries are incredibly spiritual..he was definetly an inspired writer. I can't keep my nose out of them.His was a simple faith.. he was full of love and wisdom and he had a very liberal dose of the Holy Spirit.. in other words we could all benefit from this great work..its been around for 3 centuries, so he must have done something right..the six volume set has the king james text and this new edition is eminently readable..i have seen some that the printing was miniscule.. not this edition...very good and godly...please read these

A Necessary Read For Anyone Interested In The Bible

The information is solid and enlightening as a whole. There are some questionable interpretations, but very informative where the Pentateuch is concerned.
