About

Description

This pack contains all 7 volumes of the Ep Study Commentaries by John Currid covering the 5 books of the Pentateuch, Genesis to Deuteronomy. 

Genesis - Vol 1

This volume covers Genesis 1-25:18 - the period from Creation up to the death of Abraham and the marriage of Isaac and Rebekah.

Genesis is a book about beginnings the creation of the universe, the formation of mankind, the establishment of the covenant and the founding of the people of Israel. Many Christians regard the Old Testament as merely a collection of interesting stories to be taught in Sunday school, but which have little application for the church today except as providing examples or illustrations from a bygone, almost barbarous, age. 

The truth is that almost every important church doctrine is found in 'seed' form in the book of Genesis creation, fall, redemption, the doctrine of the Trinity, the promise of the Messiah, the establishment of the covenant and the hope of the resurrection are all to be found here. A 'seed' is planted in Genesis and then it sprouts and grows throughout the rest of the Bible until it finds its fruition in the person and work of Jesus Christ. God created the universe; it fell through the sin of humanity; and now God is in the process of redeeming it through the work of Christ. This latter work continues even now until the time of the end when all things will be put in their final place. 

Dr Currid provides solid exegesis in an accessible way, matched with practical application that displays the relevance of this Old Testament book for the twenty-first century.

Genesis Vol. 2

This volume covers Genesis 25:19-50:26 - the lives of the patriarchs Jacob and Joseph, ending with the Israelites living in Egypt.

Dr Currid shows the relevance of this Old Testament book for the twenty-first century: 'Sufficiently scholarly to give [them] credence in the academic world, but at the same time… sufficiently straightforward to make [them] accessible to any serious student of the Bible'. (Banner of Truth)

Exodus Vol. 1

This commentary on the text of Exodus has been written for the building up of the church. It not only provides insights into the book of Exodus, but also clear and concise application. It is a book for everyone who wants to understand better what God says to us in his Word.

The author writes, "It is my hope that pastors will use it for sermon preparation, and others for Bible study preparation and personal study." Dr Currid provides solid exegesis in an accessible way matched with practical application that displays the relevance of this Old Testament book for the twenty-first century.

This volume covers the first eighteen chapters of Exodus, telling the account of the deliverance of the children of Israel from Egypt to their arrival at Sinai. It is the story of the persecution of God's people, their release from the domination of Pharaoh's Egypt to the crossing of the Red Sea. Central to this narrative is the birth, life and ministry of Moses.

Exodus Vol. 2

Leviticus 

Leviticus used to be the first book of the Bible read and studied by children in the synagogue. In the church, it is perhaps the last one read, if it is ever given any attention at all. One of the reasons that the book of Leviticus is so little studied in the church is a lack of understanding about the relevance of the literature to the New Testament Christian. John Currid shows that Leviticus has an enduring value and quality for the believer of any age.

The book of Leviticus is indispensable for teaching the Christian the depth and heinousness of human sinfulness. The chasm that separates a holy God from an unholy humanity stems from this pervasive iniquity. Yet Leviticus holds out a promise that mankind can be made right with God and live according to his statutes. It truly underscores the love of God for his people, and that he has a plan of salvation for them. But one also realizes that the sacrificial system of Leviticus is insufficient and cannot make people right with God. It points out that something greater is needed. It demands a final atonement. Thus, more than any other book of the Old Testament, Leviticus foreshadows and adumbrates the coming of the Messiah and his wondrous work of atonement.

‘EP Study Commentaries are invaluable tools for the minister, theologian and serious students of the Scriptures. This series is both readable and user- friendly.’

Numbers

God has promised to be with Israel in the wilderness, and throughout the book of Numbers he demonstrates his unwavering faithfulness to this promise. Despite their grumbling and rebellion against him, he remains with them and leads them as they leave Sinai and prepare to march to the land of promise.

John D. Currid’s in-depth study helps Bible teachers and students unpack this theme, showing that now, in Christ, God promises to guide his people faithfully to their ultimate destination.

The EP Study Commentary series is designed for ministers, theologians and serious students of the Bible. With John D. Currid as the series editor, EPSCs balance biblical scholarism with straightforward application, making them the ideal companion for pastors and Bible teachers.

Deuteronomy

When Jesus was asked which is the greatest commandment, he cited a passage from Deuteronomy 6 as the fundamental and first tenet of Scripture. In this Study Commentary, John Currid shows that the purpose of Deuteronomy is to teach the people of God how to behave in every area of life. And the two main principles of that teaching are to fear God and to obey his commandments.

Using his own translation from the original Hebrew, Dr John Currid ably demonstrates that the book of Deuteronomy is an official document ratifying the formal covenant relationship between God as the sovereign King and his covenant people, Israel. At the close of the forty years of wandering in the wilderness, and on the eve of the entry into the promised land, Moses summons the Israelites to a solemn reaffirmation and ratification of the covenant first made at Sinai and promises great blessings to the people if only they will remain faithful to the covenant and obey God's Word.

Christians too need to remember that God has made a covenant with the church. And, therefore, we need to ask the question: ‘What does Yahweh your God ask from you?' The answer is found in Deuteronomy: we need to fear God; we need to walk in his way; we need to love him; we need to serve him; and we need to keep his commandments. And, like Israel of old, if we live in obedience to the Word of God then we shall be wise and understanding and, indeed, God will greatly bless his people if they obey his Word.
