Overview

Noted for its steadfast commitment to biblical authority, its readability, and its clear exposition of Scripture, the Preaching the Word Series is an ideal resource for pastors, teachers, and those seeking to enrich their personal Bible study. This set of commentaries on the Old and New Testaments is edited by renowned pastor, R. Kent Hughes, of College Church in Wheaton, Illinois. In this collection, experienced pastors exemplify expository preaching and provide practical applications of over 40 books of the Bible, as well as the Sermon on the Mount. Preachers and laity alike will find these commentaries both insightful and accessible.

  • Provides practical application from the Scriptures
  • Contains exegesis and word study on 45 books of the Bible
  • Includes volumes designed to help preachers communicate God’s Word
  • Offers a sermon application index for finding the perfect illustration
It is a pleasure to commend this series of homiletical commentaries. They fill an enormous vacuum that exists between the practical needs of the pastor/teacher and the critical exegetical depth of most commentaries.

Walter C. Kaiser Jr., emeritus president and distinguished professor of Old Testament and ethics, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

There is a long history of informed, edifying biblical expositions that have been mightily used of God to shape and strengthen the church. These volumes admirably fit this tradition.

D. A. Carson, research professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

Throughout the Christian centuries, working pastors have been proving themselves to be the best of all Bible expositors. Kent Hughes stands in this great tradition, and his exciting expositions uphold it worthily.

J. I. Packer, Board of Governors’ late Professor of Theology, Regent College

This series resonates with the priorities of the pulpit. No academic aloofness here, but down-to-earth, preacher-to-preacher meat for God’s people.

Bryan Chapell, Senior Pastor of Grace Presbyterian Church in Peoria, IL and President Emeritus at Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, MO

This series will minister to a pastor’s soul as well as giving him an immense resource for his preaching. And it will minister to the parishioner wonderfully in personal Bible story. The reader will be filled with fresh thoughts about our Lord as well as joyful encouragement for himself. That is what happened to me in reading this.

Kenneth N. Taylor, translator, The Living Bible

The single best resource for faithful biblical exposition available today. A great boon for genuine reformation!

Timothy George, dean and professor of divinity history and doctrine, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University

    I am in the process of reading all 40 volumes cover-to-cover. The authors seem to have agreed to look for the Gospel of God's grace, mercy, goodness, forgiveness, and praise in every verse where even a hint of grace is found. I am currently reading through Raymond C. Ortlund, Jr.'s commentary titled Isaiah - God Saves Sinners. Although Isaiah has long been one of my favorite OT books, I am now seeing God's grace in places I never imagined before. Praise the Lord for this wonderful devotional series. Ed Walsh

    I love reading these commentaries for personal study alongside the Bible. Plus, in sermon prep they're always a go to! Are they planning to finish this series? I sure hope so!

    Feel the series is a good one for Personal Devotional on a particular Passage. May provide good information to use in a Sermon or Bible study class. Only have a couple of the books but the ones I have do make you think hard on the passage.
