Like many I had struggeld to comprehend this book of the Bible, and this commentary does a great job of doing this. As always with the BST series the style is like that of a sermon on paper, whixch makes it very readable. It is a relatively slim volume, and I am sure that it only scratches the surface of what the author could have written.
