Publisher's Synopsis
'As soon as I saw Mr Dalton's book I knew that it would be of the very greatest use in far more than one field,' says the Rev William Barclay in his introduction. The result of over twenty years of experience as a preacher, this is an invaluable companion to the Bible for preachers, teachers and students of scripture. For each series of verses, the author provides a simple list of themes and insights into the meaning of the text, to provide seeds from which preachers can develop their ideas for sermons, around which teachers can construct their lesson plans, and which will crystallise for the student the essential significance of the passage. 'I could wish that this book could get into the hands of every preacher, every teacher and every student of the Bible,' concludes the Rev Barclay, 'It will do very great work in elucidating the meaning of Scripture and in making study easier and more profitable.'
