The three letters of John found near the end of the New Testament have a tendency to be oversimplified or simply overlooked in the study of the Scriptures. However, though these letters may on the surface seem less applicable to our time because they address heresies and church management issues that seem unique to the early church, careful study reveals just how contemporary these concerns are.
In this volume of James Montgomery Boice’s popular commentary series, pastors, Bible students, and laypersons will find analysis of John’s timeless messages of righteousness, truth, and love. Boice explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and subject by subject. Clear language and an approachable style make this commentary accessible and enlightening. Within these pages are important lessons on:
the essence of Christianity
assurance of salvation
identification of false teachings
proper treatment of God’s servants
interaction between the church and the world
living a righteous life
Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount shows us the absolute necessity of the new birth and a regenerated heart. It points us to Jesus himself. And it indicates the way to blessing for Christians—how we can please our heavenly Father.
James Montgomery Boice provides an in-depth look into the Sermon on the Mount found in Matthew 5–7. He explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and relates its concerns to today’s world, the church, and the realities of the Christian life.
Boice’s clear, practical writing makes this a helpful commentary for a wide range of readers—from serious Bible students to interested laypersons—to understand and apply the truths found in Jesus’s teaching. It covers such topics as:
“The Secret of Happiness” (5:3–12),
“How to Rejoice in Persecutions” (5:12),
“When You Are Angry” (5:21–26),
“Divorce and Remarriage” (5:31–32),
“How to Pray” (6:5–8),
“The Names of God” (6:9),
“How to Defeat Temptation” (6:13),
“Fasting” (6:16–18), and
“Spiritual Discernment” (7:6).
The Minor Prophets dramatize the character of God as few other books in the Bible do.
According to noted expositor James Montgomery Boice, the Minor Prophets particularly highlight three aspects of God’s character: his sovereignty, his holiness, and his love. The messages of the Minor Prophets and their pertinent application for our lives should not be dismissed.
This is volume two of a two-volume expositional and inspirational commentary on the Minor Prophets that integrates rigorous scholarship with accessible writing. Boice not only explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and section by section but also relates the text’s concerns to the world in which we live, the life of the church, and the realities of the Christian life.
These two volumes on the Minor Prophets offer more of James Montgomery Boice¹s informative and practical commentary. Volume 1 surveys Hosea through Jonah, and volume 2 covers Micah through Malachi. Both volumes offer thorough interpretation of the text in a clearly written manner that will inform and help a wide range of readers, from serious Bible students to interested laypersons. Based on messages Boice preached, these expositional commentaries explain the meaning of the text verse by verse and section by section. They also guide listeners on how to apply the truths they find, as Boice relates the concerns of the text to today¹s world, the church, and the realities of the Christian life.

This second volume on the Gospel of John shows how Jesus dealt with the hostility that began to arise among the religious leaders in regard to various practices of faith and how he didn’t allow their hostility to deter him from his path.
