Moody Publishers Acts 13-28: The MacArthur New Testament Commentary

The book of Acts is the first volume of church history. It connects the early church to the ministry of Jesus, and provides the backdrop for the New Testament epistles. The book's focus on cross-cultural evangelism and the spread of the gospel makes studying Acts a must for any believer who is serious about living out the Great Commission.

The indispensable MacArthur Commentary on the New Testament emphasizes both an explanation and application of Scripture by an examination of the text that seeks to illuminate broad doctrinal themes in the service of God's people. Each passage is related to other passages of Scripture dealing with similar themes, and when necessary draws in linguistic questions to further support adequate exposition of the text-though these are never technical.

Sharp, clear outlines are provided for each section of the biblical book and guide the commentary discussion throughout each volume in the series. Commentary sections comprise periscopes of Scripture (i.e., 2 Timothy 1.1-5) and key words/phrases are highlighted in bold.

The MacArthur New Testament Commentary comes from the experience, insight, and wisdom of one of the most trusted ministry leaders and Bible teachers of our day. Each volume was written to be as comprehensive and accurate as possible, dealing thoroughly with every key phrase and word in the Bible without being unduly technical. This series helps provide a better, fuller, and richer understanding of God's word while challenging all readers-no matter what their expertise-to grow in a vibrant, personal spiritual walk.

John is not a story teller but does an excellent job following the text and telling you what the Bible says. I always use John when I want to understand what a portion of Scripture says.

Books arrived sooner than I expected in perfect condition.
I can always find the best price in what I'm looking for and the John MacArthur Commentaries are one of my favorites for diving into more or as much detail as I'm searching for in my studies....the content is incredibly informative and piques the interest from page to page, verse to verse.

I enjoy MacArthur's writing style in this series of commentaries. I have his full set of commentaries that I use as one of my sources for studies. I purchased the two commentaries on Acts as a gift for a friend that is preparing to teach a men's bible study. I may not agree with all of his views, but the points and relations to scripture and the history of the times that he brings to light is very much worth reading.
