 | Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown's Commentary on the whole Bible Jan 11, 2007 |
This book was hard to find. You were the only place that would get it for me. This is the second time you helped me get what I was looking for.Remember the word BIBLE means: "Basic Information Before Leaving Earth".
Thanks again !

| An ideal resource Dec 26, 2006 |
| Years ago I picked this gem up on a discount shelf simply because I wanted a complete commentary and could afford nothing else. Over the years I have had the opportunity to compare it with many others yet it still stands above the rest. There is, simply, no better commentary for the price with the possible exception of Matthew Henry's classic work available on the web. The coverage is exceptional and the price is ideal. You will not likely need another commentary than this one. |

| Still great!! Review by Pastor Dennis Stewart Dec 9, 2006 |
| I have most of the best of the best in current Bible commentaries of the New and Old Testaments, however, I still find myself reaching for this one time after time. I have had the 3 volume set for many years and still love the detail presented and the heart with which it is presented. It is packed full of historical information as well as Greek/ Hebrew definitions and is excellent in all of the other additional information it provides. Despite it's age, it is a MUST have for ministers or ANYONE serious about God's Word. In my opinion, it will always be a timeless classic for all those who are seeking to enrich their lives with not only the information of God's Word, but also assisting in understanding HIM better and drawing them closer to HIM (that's really what it's all about anyway). I've just recently bought this one volume of JFB for my mother and can't wait to see what she thinks. God bless you as you seek HIS Presence. |

| After all these years -- Still the best Jul 28, 2006 |
The JFB commentary on the whole Bible was authored nearly 150 years ago. Like so few of its numerous peers, the JFB still remains as the preeminent work of its kind. Today's "modern" commentaries pale by comparison and will quickly fade into obscurity. If anything, it seems as though deep understanding of the Scriptures has given way to superficial milk-spew. The JFB remains the bedrock standard of Scriptural explanation. Concise, lucid, and without apology to denomination or creed, Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown have done more for the honest Bible student than nearly any other expounder before or since. To say I highly recommend the JFB couldn't be more of an understatement.
If you're serious about studying the Bible and coming to a deeper understanding of, and relationship with, God, the JFB is a good place to start.
Prepare to be humbled. |

| Being a bi-vocational pastor means I need concise and exact Biblical commentary because of working fulltime and pastoring a church fulltime. This commentary has been invaluable to me in all ways in helping me with my sermons. I don't believe there has been a time that I have not referred to it for explanation of God's word. |
