Matthew Harmon’s new commentary on Philippians is a worthy addition to the bookshelves of any Christians who are keen to wrestle with God’s Word for themselves and teach it to others.
Harmon begins his commentary with a refreshingly honest ‘note to the reader’ in which he says that ‘a good commentary should explain the meaning of the text and indicate how it applies to our lives’ (p.7). The author then endeavours to do exactly that with great skill and clear pastoral warmth.
