E-Sword Commentaries

[Wee D'Arcy's Mum]

I was looking at the commentaries on E-Sword http://www.e-sword.net/commentaries.html
And was wondering if anyone knows anything about them and can recommend ones here that may be okay to add on to my Bible download. Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary and Keil & Delitzsch Commentary on the Old Testament were recommended to me about 6 years ago by a friend but he goes to a different church so I dont know if people here would think differently. Thanks for your help.

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

John Darby's Synopsis of the Bible

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary

Keil & Delitzsch Commentary on the Old Testament

The People's New Testament (B. W. Johnson)

Robertson's Word Pictures in the New Testament

Scofield's Reference Notes

The Treasury of David (C. H. Spurgeon)

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Vincent's Word Studies

John Wesley's Notes on the Bible

I dont know about some of the others but I like Matthew Henry :smile

[Jerry]

Out of all the ones mentioned, I use Matthew Henry's the most. Spurgeon's Treasury Of David has excellent commentary by Spurgeon - though you have to sift through the rest (ie. the myriad quotes and outlines by others). Some are awesome and some are junk.
