Read Philip Graham Ryken's Commentaries!!!






I have to recommend these five commentaries. They are all written by Philip Graham Ryken. Two of them are in R. Kent Hughes series, Preaching the Word, and the other three are in the Reformed Expository Commentary series.  

1. Exodus (Preaching the Word)
     -Ryken does an incredible job of connecting the Passover to Jesus Christ. You can't help but t        to fall in love with Jesus Christ in this commentary. It is clear and easy to follow

2. Jeremiah and Lamentations (Preaching the Word)
     -In his commentary, Ryken show the connection of the book of Jeremiah and the book of             John. You can't help but to see the Old Testament Shepherd VS. the New Testament                     Shepherd.

3. Luke 2 Volumes (Reformed Expository Commentary)-Great Literary Themes!

4. Galatians (Reformed Expository Commentary)-Theologically Solid.

5. I Timothy (Reformed Expository Commentary)-Very Pastoral

*I may be biased! But I find his commentaries very helpful for a pastor who love the Word and has a Theological mind. Also for the student of God's Word, who wants to see how the Bible connects to everyday life.
