A commentary which contains an overview of every book and chapter of the Bible in an easy to understand format. It is not an overly technical word-for-word commentary. Also an insight into the overall context of each Bible section while showing how the Biblical text has relevance to today's society.

When people read the Bible, they are often frustrated by the wide gap in time and culture that separates them from the original readers. The aim of the AMG Concise Bible Commentary is to bridge the gap by providing the sort of information that ordinary readers are looking for in their search for a clearer understanding of the Bible. With a clearer understanding, the Bible becomes more relevant.


The AMG Concise Bible Commentary also bridges the gap between a technical Bible commentary and the person who has little technical knowledge when it comes to understanding the Bible. The commentary is based on a firm Biblical scholarship, but the reader does not have to be a Biblical scholar to understand it. It retains its credibility as a reliable reference work, yet presents the material in an easy-to-read and non-technical style. It is simple, but not simplistic. It seeks to be true to the Biblical material, while at the same time being helpful to the reader.
