A prolific writer of Bible commentary, Matthew Henry had a remarkable ability to find practical spiritual application in nearly every verse of Scripture. This brand-new devotional, drawn from Henry's writings, offers wisdom for Christian living 365 days a year. Built around key verses from Genesis to Revelation, The Best of Matthew Henry on Christian Living will challenge and encourage readers to deepen their relationship with God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Henry's well-known Exposition of the Old and New Testaments (1708-1710) is a commentary of a practical and devotional rather than of a critical kind, covering the whole of the Old Testament, and the Gospels and Acts in the New Testament. After the author's death, the work was finished by a number of ministers, and edited by George Burder and John Hughes in 1811. Not a work of textual criticism, its attempt at good sense, discrimination, its high moral tone and simple piety with practical application, combined with the well-sustained flow of its English style, made it one of the most popular works of its type. Matthew Henry's six volume Complete Commentary, originally published in 1706, provides an exhaustive verse by verse study of the Bible. His commentaries are still in use to this day.
