The Dordrecht Bible Commentary: Volume I: The Pentateuch (Hard-Back)

For 400 years, the Dort Bible has blessed the universal church not only with a fresh and accurate translation but also its revered running commentary from the best and most godly pastor-theologians of the 17th Century Golden Age. This gift for God’s people, covering all of Scripture, was
approved by both the Synod of Dordrecht 1618-1619 and the Westminster Assembly 1645.

Preserving the original Early-Modern English text, this first volume of The Dordrecht Bible
Commentary contains the Five Books of Moses or, The Pentateuch, known by the Jewish
people of God as the Torah. As the foundation for the entire Bible, the Pentateuch sets the
course for the History of Redemption on the way towards Bethlehem and Calvary. Tracing
the journeys of God’s people from the Garden of Eden to the edge of the Promised Land,
what God teaches his people then are the same infallible truths we and our children
desperately need to hear today and tomorrow.

In addition to an extended introduction in this volume to the classic commentary, to the
entire set have been added historical backgrounds, volume introductions, contributors’
biographies, art galleries, fresh outlines for every book of the Bible, maps and searchable
indices.

For every student of Scripture, whether at home or in the academy, the over 58,000 comments on all 66 books of the Bible contained in this historic work have proven time and again to renew the mind, grip the heart and point the way for right living—the genius of the Reformation and the Further
Reformation of the church.
