Matthew Poole's Commentary - 3 vols

MatthewPooleCommentary3vols.jpgHere's another bible commentary that I own in both hardback and software.

Hatthew Poole's Commentary of the Bible - 3 volumes is another very popular bible commentary.

Here's the blurb:
Perhaps the only true rival to Matthew Henry! Charles Spurgeon said, "If I must have only one commentary, and had read Matthew Henry as I have, I do not know but what I should choose Poole. He is a very prudent and judicious commentator . . . not so pithy and witty by far as Matthew Henry, but he is perhaps more accurate, less a commentator, and more an expositor." 3104 pages total, three hardcovers from Hendrickson.

Currently, the 3 volume hardback versions sells for about $60 at ChristianBook.com; however, I'm sure I didn't pay that amount. I'm thinking I picked it up for sale for about $40.

Every now and then ChristianBook.com deeply discounts some items. Watching their ads is very worthwhile as you can get some outstanding books at a small cost.
