Contemporary and up to date. Another thing many of them could do with is a bit of editing down! ;-)
ReplyDeleteIs this the same Gary Brady as the one who wrote a 812 page commentary on Proverbs, Heavenly Wisdom? ;-)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I found the book v. helpful when doing a series of Bible Studies on Prov. Great stuff. You should do Ecclesiastes next. Do you agree with Philip Eveson's interpretation of the book especially his definition of "vanity"?
Long I agree but not wordy. I'd love to do Ecc. You know the title. I'm pretty much with PHE on Ecc I must admit. Have you seen his Lev - dedicated to people like you & me?
ReplyDeleteYes, I've got PHE on Leviticus. If it's as good as his one on Genesis, it should be v. helpful. Only read the intro so far.
ReplyDeleteHm..
ReplyDeleteIs this game for insiders only, or can anyone play?
Pardon my outsider dumbness, but who is PHE?
David,
ReplyDeleteDon't you even know that?
PHE is Philip H. Eveson, Principal of the London Theological Seminary.
Author of The Great Exchange on justification and the new perspective.(Day One Publications)
Commentaries on Genesis: The Book of Origins and Leviticus: The Beauty of Holiness. (Evangelical Press)
Gary & I both studied at LTS, hence the mysterious insider codes.
Feel included now? ;-)
