The New Testament for English Readers: A Critical and Explanatory Commentary, Volume 1 is unavailable, but you can change that!

Henry Alford’s four-volume New Testament edition, complete with in-depth introductions to each book and an extensive verse-by-verse commentary, is a work of lasting appeal. Alford takes great pains to build a solid foundation for readers approaching the works of the Gospels and Epistles.

THE ETERNAL WORD OF GOD, THE SOURCE OF ALL EXISTENCE, LIFE, AND LIGHT, BECAME FLESH, DWELT AMONG US, WAS WITNESSED TO BY JOHN, REJECTED BY HIS OWN PEOPLE, BUT RECEIVED BY SOME, WHO HAD POWER GIVEN THEM TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD. HE WAS THE PERFECTION AND END OF GOD’S REVELATION OF HIMSELF; WHICH WAS PARTIALLY MADE IN THE LAW, BUT FULLY DECLARED IN JESUS CHRIST.
