Digital Logos Edition
The 7-volume Wesleyan Bible Commentary is the first multi-volume commentary on the whole Bible by a distinguished community of Wesleyan scholars—representing nine evangelical denominations. The commentary takes advantage of the latest and best information available to present-day Bible scholars. This series maintains both the spiritual insight and sound biblical scholarship of John Wesley and Adam Clarke, but expresses these characteristics in the context of contemporary thought and life. The resulting commentary is cast in the framework of contemporary evangelical Wesleyan Bible scholarship.
For many years the authors and publishers have sensed the need for a modern, practical Bible commentary from a broadly evangelical and uniquely Wesleyan perspective—the Wesleyan Bible Commentary meets this need. This commentary series aims for a high level of sound biblical scholarship, with a purpose that is practical rather than technical. The design of the series is evangelical, expositional, practical, homiletical, and devotional. Pastors will find these commentaries particularly useful for sermon preparation, and laypersons and students will find them ideally suited for research projects and personal study.
With the Logos edition of the Wesleyan Bible Commentary, you can perform powerful searches and access a wealth of information on the Bible quickly and easily! Hovering over scripture references displays the text from the Greek New Testament or your English translation, and you can link the Wesleyan Bible Commentary to the other commentaries in your digital library for accurate research and a fuller understanding of the Bible.
