With solid scholarship and exceptional clarity, the Holman Concise Bible Commentary gives readers a feel for the key themes and intentions of all 66 books in the Bible. But don’t mistake concise for incomplete; this volume also contains detailed introductions to the ten major units of Scripture (the Gospels, Paul’s letters, etc.), maps related to biblical history, informational charts, and in-depth sidebars. It’s a perfect resource for adding an extra level of insight to Sunday school lessons, sermons, and personal devotional times.
