The design for The Preacher's Commentary gives the reader an overall outline of each book of the Bible.

For those on the firing line - in pulpits, classes, Bible study groups, and fellowships, here is a distinctly different kind of commentary.

The Preacher's Commentary Series combines rich resources of historical setting and textual interpretation with spiritual insights and contemporary illustrations specifically designed for communicators. The result is a resource by preachers and teachers for preachers and teachers.

It is complete with outlines, section-by-section expositions, illustrations, and applications. This authorative commentary provides the ultimate resource for sermon and lesson preparation. The New King James Bible has been chosen for the Preacher's Commentary because it combines with integrity the beauty of language, underlying Hebrew and Greek textual basis, and thought-flow of the 1611 King James Version, while replacing obsolete verb forms and other archaisms with their everyday contemporary counterparts for greater readability.

Reverence for God is preserved in the capitalisation of all pronouns referring to the Father, Son, or Holy Spirit.

Readers who are more comfortable with another translation can readily find the parallel passage by means of the chapter and verse reference at the end of each passage being exposited.

The paragraphs of exposition combine fresh insights to the Scripture, application, rich illustrative material, and innovative ways of utilising the vibrant truth for his or her own life and for the challenge of communicating it with vigour and vitality.
