Bible Study and Commentaries

By: Mike Mazzalongo Posted: Wed. Oct 9th

Dear Mike,
How do you suggest I study the Bible and use commentaries?

My suggestion for how to study the Bible would be to begin with the Study Plans, which are available for free on the BibleTalk.tv website. These courses take you from a beginner's level to a more advanced level by studying various books and topics contained on the site. Answering the questions at the end of each lesson will also help you build up your Bible knowledge. There are even certificates that you will receive establishing the level of competency that you have reached. (Study Plans)

As for commentaries, the two I can recommend are the New Testament Commentaries by R.C.H. Lenski and the complete Bible Commentary series entitled, "Truth for Today" commentaries published by Resource Publishing. Each book in this set is by a different author/scholar.
