Customer Reviews

Great Antecdotes!

Colossians and Philemon by R. Kent Hughes is a great Bible study tool with insight into first century Christian life explaining Paul's purpose for writing to the Colossians. But it's not merely an historical account and his main purpose is to show the relevance of this epistle to modern man. This he does beautifully through his exceptional antecdotes which lend clarity to the book.

Good Expostional Resource

This expositional commentary is helpful for pastors. Hughes' ability to be concise is a lesson and a tool. Additionally, Hughes salts his books with so many illustrations you almost have to have this just for this purpose!

Colossians

This is the best book I have ever read on the book of Colossians. The writer has a deep insight on the Christ set forth in this book. He explains very clearly the absolute deity of Jesus Christ as the sole expression of God to us in this age. Wimbly J Hankins

Solid Resource

I have quickly come to appreciate this series of commentaries/sermons as a great help in my sermon preparation from week to week, and for my own edification. I greatly appreciate the basic commitments of this series: that the Church should take Scripture seriously (their view on Scripture is solidly evangelical), and that verse-by-verse exposition and application is a phenomenal--if not the primary--way of engaging people with God's revelation and will. Among the books in this series I have read, this one may not be the most helpful. Most every chapter was very helpful in gaining understanding of the text, and ways in which they may apply to the contemporary Christian. But there were times when chapters were predicable, though by no means unbiblical. As a series I heartily recommend Preaching the Word, and if you are looking for a good "application" resource on Colossians and Philemon, this would be a great addition to your shelf.
