The body of the work consists of notes that are concise, learned, free from verbiage and easily understood, that elucidate and explain difficult passages of Scripture, or whose import is not readily apprehended. Far in advance of the older works now in use, it is also the most practical, suggestive and scientific.
Rev. H. Clay Trumbull, Editor of the Sunday-School Times: "I do not know of its equal within its scope and cost."
Rev. J. H. Vincent, Bishop M. E. Church: "It deserves a place on the table of every Bible student."
