Concise Bible Commentary (Congregationalist)

First published as the Christian Workers Commentary.

Christian workers’ commentary on the Old and New Testaments, arranged in sections with questions for use in family altars and in adult Bible classes. Containing homiletic and expository suggestions for young preachers. Also an index of texts and themes receiving special treatment.

James Gray, president of the Moody Bible Institute from 1904-34, hoped that this commentary could serve to educate the Christian laity. “Fundamental to any first- hand knowledge of the Bible is the reading of the Holy Book itself,” he writes in the introduction. He makes clear that his commentary, if it has any value, should kindle a desire in its readers to study the Bible itself more deeply on their own. He suggests that people use the commentary in adult Bible classes, expository preaching, and family devotions. Today, readers can still use Gray’s work as he intended, but one can also study it as an historical piece, particularly as a look into early 20th century Evangelical biblical hermeneutics.

Using theWord Module layout Sets theWord does not just read the particular modules (books) you have in its folder. These books must be registered and added to a "Module Layout Set", which one of these must be chosen. So you can separate, slice and dice your library as you wish, or put them all into a single library. But the module may be invisible if you do not correctly set this up on adding a new module. This class explains all of how to do this.

Is doing good works the same as being righteous? Examines a fine issue in our thinking, is doing good works the same as righteousness? No, they are different. A wicked man can do a good work, and in God's eyes, it is still unpleasing to God because the man is in rebellion to God.

Buy me a Cup of Coffee! To make an old work into a PDF, a module for theWord, MySword, or eSword takes time. These works are scans from old books, and as such, I have to go through the text some dozen times looking for places where the OCR is incorrect, blurred, or just skipped something. Then there are the old Bible references like John iii. 16. I have had to invest days and days in macros to read a long text, and make substitutions (above search for "iii" and replace with "3:"). Unfortunately, you have to start with 150 in Roman numerals (CL) and work your way backwards. This takes time and patience, (and being smart enough to do it in a macro language) and then making the text into theWord or eSword, and converting it also into MySword. Please donate something to me once every 6 months or year, even if it is only $5, so that I can pay my bills for hosting, and also keep things going. paypal.me/davidcoxmex/
