Great Commentary...

Stott is a great theologian. I am only in the introduction and overwhelmed. He takes great care to understand the Gospel of John. We need more theologians and pastors willing to care for the Word of God (because it is the Word of God).

Good so far!

I haven't ever read this book straight through and I've never read anything else by Stott, but I must say that I'm glad I bought this commentary. It has been a valuable reference, especially in introducing myself to the first letter of John. I've found this to be a positive addition to my reference library and look forward to being able to dig deeper into it in the future.

Excellent

When I preached through 1 John last year, this was the commentary I found myself referring to over and over again. Stott grasps the structure of the book well, is clear in his exegesis, and eloquent in his explanation of the text. As with all of his commentaries, here you find a rare blend of scholarship and simplicity, doctrinal precision and pastoral insight, exegetical skill and homiletical artistry. This was the only commentary (out of over a dozen that I own) that I read completely through.
