Truly a delightful reading experience

The authors stated there intention in the beginning of each chapter and delivered with great detail in accomplishing their objectives.

I am interested in their other projects!

A Deeper Understanding

I've only recently embarked on my journey of theological study, but this is my favorite Old Testament commentary so far. I plan to listen again.

The best course ever

This is the most well researched and comprehensive courses on any subject, especially the Bible. Since I hold several higher degrees, I was overjoyed to find a course that presented several points of view, examined each and yet was faith filled. Brilliant and must listening!
Thank you so much

The endless footnotes kill it

The sharp s's of the reader, the footnotes and study questions add a tedium that far overshadows the content. It was a terrible mistake to include that into the audio. If it was THAT important they could have offered it as a PDF with the audio book. I could only stand it for about 3 hours and cut it off. I'll find something else.
