Pastor’s Library is a series where all matters pertaining to theological books are discussed - whether it is about a book or a series of books that you have seen on a Pastor’s bookshelf, whether it is on a reading list for a diploma in Theology or for your Batchelor’s or Master’s degree. There are so many Christian Theology books out there and it is so difficult to navigate through them without any help; this is where 'Pastor’s Library' comes in.

Well, these volumes haven’t been super Duper helpful for me in my sermon preparation, but I liked Holliday on Jeremiah, Klein on second Chronicles, and Attridge on Hebrews.
Great video. Great help. Cheers.
What are your top two picks for a commentary series?
The trouble is that there is "no one size fits all". It depends on how a commentary series sits with you. I guess the one series that stands out to me as a pastor which has never disappointed is the New Beacon Bible Commentary (NBBC). If you want something slightly more academic then the New International Commentary on the Old Testament (NICOT) and it's sister series on the New Testament (NICNT) are the other ones I use the most. The thing is that you will always find a couple in a series that you don't get on with and then find individual volumes in other series that you love. Bless you in your reading!
I love this series for it's technical detail and it's challenge to the average thinker (in my case, very average thinker) to draw your own theological or practical applications.
Bless you Elliot! Great to hear from you!
This is probably my favorite commentary series. I used it through out university and it is superior in my view. It dives deep into those very detailed questions you might have that others might not have considered and it is trustworthy scholarship on the cutting edge. The volumes on Mathew are some of the best I have ever seen...by Ulrich Luz. And I love those end papers with the pics of ancient manuscripts and the book design which is gorgeous.
