When I was a young man, my spiritual father, mentor, and pastor gave me a copy of John Gill. He told me it was the most trustworthy and foundational commentary in print. He explained to me that my hero Charles Spurgeon had feasted on John Gills writings when he was a young man. Nearly twenty-five years later, I want to once again publicly thank Pastor Robert Gifford for introducing me to the great John Gill who has remained my constant companion in my life. His cogent, orthodox, and careful scholarship has provided me with untold blessings. It does my heart great good to think that Dr. Gills incomparable commentaries are once again available for the libraries of Christian families. Douglas W. Phillips
In the history of the Christian church, there has only been one comprehensive, verse-by-verse commentary of the entire Bible. Thank God that the author of this commentary was a model of biblical orthodoxy and sound scholarship Dr. John Gill (1697-1771). Of Dr. Gill, the prince of preachers, Charles Spurgeon, wrote:
In some respects, he has no superior. For good, sound, massive, sober sense in commenting, who can excel Gill?
Born at Kettering in Northamptonshire, England, John Gill became a Reformed clergyman who not only wrote the first verse-by-verse commentary, but also wrote the first Baptist systematic theology. Dr. Samuel Stillman stated, I have daily reason to bless God for your valuable Exposition... a work from which, I doubt not, the church will derive the greatest advantage to the end of time.
Perhaps the most notable benefit of Gills Exposition of the Old and New Testaments is the fact that it contains the sense of the sacred text and doctrinal and practical truths set in a plain and easy light which is relevant, timely, and understandable for modern readers.
