LUKE & JOHN / Quick Notes Simplified Bible Commentary Series Volume 9

I recommend this book.

I will tell you right from the start that I am fairly particular about what I like in a Christian book. In our world today there is so much put forth as biblical and Christian that falls far short of what is actual truth. At the same time, I pray that there will come a day when we Christians can put aside our differences, agree to disagree, and come together in unity over what are our basic uncompromisable principles.


Barbour Publishing as a whole is one of my favorite companies for books. My introduction to this company came through the most delightful, inspiring sales representative, Ida. With Ida there is no doubt about her faith, and I like that.

Another reason to like books from Barbour is that they are priced right for the average person. The average buyer will not need a separate bank account to afford these books. The third and most important reason to like books from Barbour is that they are sound in their Christian theology. From the reprinted classics to new fiction authors for both adults and children, you can almost without a doubt be assured that it will be good reading.

The QuickNotes series is fairly new, and will eventually be comprised of about twelve books in the series. It is called the Simplified Bible Commentary Series. Written in everyday, understandable language, you will read theological explanations of what is happening in Scripture without needing a dictionary.

For myself, I will say that after having attended graduate level seminary classes, I usually like the depth of a book that uses words not normally found in conversation. However, I find that Luke & John, Volume 9, holds my interest very well.

I appreciate the layout and explanations. It reads as smooth as a story. I also like the practical thoughts that I can apply to my life right now.

I think that if you use this book and others in the series as a help to go through the Bible it will work great. It will also work for you to use as a reference, like a dictionary or encyclopedia. Another way it can be used is to just open up to a section or passage and read it for inspiration.
