SynopsisAt the conclusion of Volume 1 of Robert Davidson's commentary on the book of Jeremiah, the prophet was depicted as steadfastly clinging to his faith in God in the midst of doubt and despair. In Volume 2 Davidson examines Jeremiah's uncomfortable relationship with the political and religious establishments of his day. He guides us through the prophecies given in the last years of Jerusalem, the account of the fall of Jerusalem, the oracles against foreign nations, and a final historical appendix.

Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, The Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, The Daily Study Bible provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today., The theology of John Calvin was given classic expression in his Institutes of the Christian Religion . In this definitive work, Calvin expert Charles Partee offers a careful exposition of Calvin's theology as it appears in the Institutes , paying special attention to the relation of Calvin's theology to the history of Christian thought and to the questions of Calvin's own time.
