An Interpretation of the English Bible (6 Volume Set)

An Interpretation of the English Bible is an unusual and rare blend of paraphrased portions of Scripture, concise and readable introductions, word studies, character studies, model sermons, pertinent illustrations, brief expositions, and much more. Studying and using this respected work, now in six large volumes, is like sitting in the classroom of a master teacher. B. H. Carroll was widely recognized for his teaching ability and his respect for the inspired Word. He felt that the Bible should speak for itself. He always allowed the Bible to mean what it intended, to be its own interpreter by comparisons of all its parts. An Interpretation of the English Bible is much more than a multi-volume commentary. Although these volumes are the fruit of many years of teaching, they are void of the scholastic, ivory tower language of many other theological works. B. H. Carroll always appreciated the practical, down-to-earth application of the Word, one of the traits that made him so popular as a teacher. The minister who recognizes that preaching involves teaching will find this set to be genuinely helpful in the preparation of sermons that emphasize the teaching aspect of the ministry. Teachers and laymen alike will value the scope and depth of the set in their study of the Scripture. Here is a deep well of knowledge from which anyone will draw frequently. B. H. Carroll was a widely known evangelist, preacher, and teacher in Texas. He was one of the founders and early presidents of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth. - Back cover.
