Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this new commentary series, projected to be 48 volumes, takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books.</p><p>Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition presented as sermons and divided into chapters that conclude with a "Reflect & Discuss" section, making this series ideal for small group study, personal devotion, and even sermon preparation. It's not academic but rather presents an easy reading, practical and friendly commentary.</p><p>The author of <i>Exalting Jesus in </i>the <i>Sermon on the Mount </i>is Daniel L. Akin.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Confidence in the truth and power of God's written Word should prompt pastors and teachers not only to say worthy things about the Bible, but also to preach and teach with faithfulness <i>from</i> the Bible. The <i>Christ-Centered Exposition</i> series helps us to do just that. Theologically rock solid, this series is a clear, practical, and useful guide to the kind of biblical exposition that will please the Lord and build up his church. <p/><b>Timothy George</b> <br> Founding dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University and general editor of the <i>Reformation Commentary on Scripture</i> <p/> <br> There is nothing more helpful to a pastor than resources that are biblically faithful and pastorally applicable. The Christ-Centered Exposition series hits the bull's eye. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to understand the Scripture in its context in order to apply it in real life. <p/><b>Darrin Patrick</b> <br> Lead pastor of The Journey, St. Louis, and co-author of <i>For the City</i> <p/> <br> David Platt, Tony Akin, and Tony Merida have launched a series that will give a rising generation of pastors a tremendous resource for seeing how all the Scriptures prepare for and proclaim the ministry of Christ. The pastoral focus, the preaching tools and the redemptive insights make this a series of immediate use and great aid to pastors who want to equip their people to serve the Lord in the joyous power of the gospel - rather than in the vain pressures of servile dread or slavish fear. <p/><b>Bryan Chapell</b> <br> President Emeritus, Covenant Seminary and Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church <p/> It's one thing to know Bible stories; it's another to know the story of the Bible. It's one thing to be aware of the story's many heroes; it's another to have met the Hero himself. From the Old Testament that anticipates him, to the Gospels that manifest him, to the Book of Acts that proclaims him, to the Epistles that explain him, and to the Book of Revelation that tells of him coming again, your Bible is about Jesus. That's why I love the vision of the <i>Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary</i> series. It models for preachers and teachers how to proclaim--with pastoral focus and exegetical care--the beauty of the gospel from every page of Scripture. <p/><b>Matt Smethurst</b> <br> Associate Editor for The Gospel Coalition <p/> Few things are more important for faithful biblical interpretation than reading Scripture in light of its master narrative. The Christ-Centered Exposition series aims to do just that. In a postmodern age, these commentaries provide pastors and lay people an invaluable resource that is unswervingly committed to the authority of Scripture and the centrality of the Gospel in the Bible's storyline. <p/><b>Dr. R. Albert Mohler Jr., President</b> <br> The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary <p/> <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Daniel L. Akin </b>is the president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. He holds a Ph.D. in Humanities from the University of Texas at Arlington and has authored or edited many books and Bible commentaries including Ten Who Changed the World and A Theology for the Church.</p>
