About the Author

Matthew Henry (1662-1714) has been known and loved for three centuries for his devotional commentary on the Bible. It has not been generally known that he was also a distinguished preacher. He began preaching at twenty-four years old and held pastorates until his death. The greatness of his sermons consists in their scriptural content, lucid presentation, practical application, and Christ-centeredness.

Building upon a stream of exact exegesis beginning with the Reformation, MATTHEW HENRY (1662–1714) achieved a standard of applied analysis that has long marked his work as superior. He is best known for his seven-volume commentary on the Bible, which C. H. Spurgeon declared was "rich in analogies . . . superabundant in reflections . . . suitable to everybody, instructive to all."

I wasn't expecting it to be so big...it doesn't fit on my bookshelf without laying it down. The print is very very small, so I'd imagine if it was a larger font size it'll twice as big. Should be called a textbook but so far I like the explanations. Very informative with a deeper description and definition of the scriptures. But if you order it don't expect to carry it around with you and bring a magnifying glass.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good product
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2023

Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible: Complete is a collection of the entire Matthew Henry series in one book. As a frame of reference, the original edition was broken up into six separate books, each many hundreds of pages long. I point this out, because all six of those book have been condensed into one with this item. That means that print size is understandably small. That being said, if you are not near sighted this text may be a little too small for comfort. If you are near sighted though, this may be a great way to get the whole series in one book at a tremendous cost savings over getting it in multiple volumes (as it was originally produced).

One of the most outstanding commentaries available, and a total bargain at this price (I bought a second hand copy for under $14). Even my cat Norman, here pictured in deep contemplation of Leviticus, enjoys it.

I take off one star because the font is so small, and very condensed (perhaps pitch 6). But if your eyesight is good enough, don't hesitate to buy it, it's rich and reverential.

These are Matthew Henry's commentaries in 6 volumes, so if you know Henry, you know what you are getting. But I must say, they were packaged with great care and arrived in perfect condition. Kudos to whoever put so much time and thought into the safety of the books.

5.0 out of 5 stars A commentary for the heart, and for the head
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2013
Verified Purchase
I first discovered the power and depth of Matthew Henry's insights and explanations from online Bible sources, that listed a dozen or so commentators. Henry's words always moved me more deeply. Having his full unabridged commentary in a single bound volume is a joy and reassurance.

This is more of a running sermon than a line-by-line explanation of Scripture. Matthew explores verses in batches, frequently pulling several paragraphs (or more) of thought and analysis from just a few verses: he writes of the heart and meaning of Scripture, and not so much the technical aspects. As we are called to worship in spirit and truth, gaining clarity (and being challenged) on the heart, helps the contemplative reader construct strong and upright understanding. Frequently, aspects of Scripture, and of His nature, are revealed that astound and inspire. For technical details, a Bible study guide like John MacArthur's is better suited.

This is a large and heavy book, replacing in one volume the original six volume set. The paper is very thin, but like the binding is of high quality; this is a book that should be treasured for generations. The print is very small, forcing my own aging eyes to rely on a magnifying glass to read it, but the richness of each sentence compels one to read slowly, pausing frequently for due contemplation anyhow. This is not a book to read quickly, this is a book to immerse yourself in in your walk with the Lord.

Many world-famous preachers kept Matthew Henry's commentary as a constant companion, I know several ministers personally who consult Henry's insights as part of every sermon preparation. For gaining a sense of the heart of Scripture, any serious believer would do well to have this volume as a ready reference.

In fellowship, Peter Warner.

3.0 out of 5 stars Five-Star Commentator, One-Star Type Size
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2016
Verified Purchase
The reason I give this three stars is because it balances my love for the commentary with the print size of the book.

Matthew Henry is, in my opinion, one of the most amazing commentators of the Bible I have ever read. He has a great devotional style and shows a great knowledge of what God's words says and means. He is easy to read and does a fine job of explaining even the difficult passages. You may not agree with everything he says, but then again, since when has anyone ever agreed 100% with anyone?

On the other hand, you better have a magnifying glass to read this particular edition. The type is EXTREMELY small and sometimes very hard to read. I still use this edition but if I ever run across an edition of the complete commentary that has far bigger type, I will definitely get it and retire this one. If anyone knows of a bigger-type complete commentary (even if it is multi-volume), please respond to this and let me know.

Henry's commentary on the whole Bible remains a classic, although some of the language is now of course a little dated. But definitely a help when examining Bible passages, eg for a sermon or study group, after one has firstly examined one's own thoughts on the text.

4.0 out of 5 stars This Commentary to Help with my Research and Study!
Reviewed in Australia on November 26, 2015
Verified Purchase
It is hard for me to give a definitive answer since I have not read it from cover to cover; the reason being that this Commentary and many others such, Andrew Gabriel Roth's Aramaic New Testament; The Artscroll English TANACH - the Jewish Bible; the Aramaic Bible by George Lamsa; the Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) by David Stern; and other sources are for my research and study of the Holy Scriptures! I have given it Four stars since from my general understanding most of this Commentary, is more in line with the teaching of the Old & New Covenants (Testaments) which other Christian (mostly modern) commentaries and teachings seem to misinterpret. The best interpretations would be from the original languages: Hebrew, Aramaic, etc.

"For ADONAI gives Wisdom; from HIS Mouth comes Knowledge and Understanding!" Prov.2:6 (CJB)

How else but by research and study which is of great importance in understanding the (True) Word of G-d!
Blessings!
