Top Highlights

“The central theological theme of the book of Esther is the deliverance of God’s people—and not just their deliverance, but the complete and total reversal of their plight.” (Page 243)

“A second difficulty in reading Esther is the moral ambiguity of its heroes and the violence in the story” (Page 248)

“But a deeper goal exists. In abandoning the covenant, God’s people had abandoned their priestly role” (Page 31)

“So we built the wall’ provides a somewhat abrupt summation to the prior material, emphasizing that the work progresses to ‘half its height’ in a seeming act of willful, God-trusting defiance.” (Page 154)

“But this is not personal vengeance. They have provoked God himself91 by mocking his people, and Nehemiah leaves vindication of God’s flock in God’s hands.” (Page 154)

The ESV Expository Commentary series will be a welcome addition to the toolbox of those who are committed to expounding the inerrant and infallible Word of God. It is biblically sound, theologically faithful, and practically helpful. I look forward to using it in my own preaching and teaching ministry.

—Daniel L. Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

The ESV Expository Commentary series is one of the best, most useful building blocks for a Bible teacher’s basic library. Readily accessible to lay readers and at the same time sufficiently learned to assist experienced expositors, this twelve-volume set seems destined to become a standard Bible reference tool for serious students of Scripture around the world.

—Philip Graham Ryken, President, Wheaton College

The ESV Expository Commentary series is truly a treasure of outstanding biblical exposition and thoughtful biblical theology. Not only will readers find high-quality scholarship, but they will discover a readable, accessible, and well-designed commentary. Pastors, Bible teachers, and interested students will find this excellent resource to be an incredibly helpful and trustworthy guide. Highly recommended!

—David S. Dockery, Chancellor, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
