We have nothing equal to them as a series." —C.H. SpurgeonLange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures is one of the most passionately requested titles we have had in a long time.This 19th century commentary, edited by Peter Lange in Germany, has served as a standard reference for more than a century. The English translation, supervised by Phillip Schaff who contributed substantially to it, runs to some 14,000 pages. Many early reviewers regarded Schaff’s edition with his additional material as superior to the original.This commentary series appears on recommended book lists to this day (e.g., the Master's Seminary 850 Books for Biblical Expositors) but is out of print and quite difficult to find as a complete set. The Logos edition will offer all the benefits of searching, copy-and-pasting, linked Bible references, and synchronous scrolling with whatever Bible you may own."...we unhesitatingly commend the Commentary of Dr. Lange, which is, in brief, a vast reservoir in which is collected an immense amount of material for the use of students and all intelligent, educated Christians." — Putnam's MagazineAdditional DetailsComplete Title: A Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal, and Homiletical, with special references to Ministers and Students. By John Peter Lange, D.D., in connection with a number of eminent European Divines. Translated from the German, and edited with additions, original and selected, by Philip Schaff, D.D., in connection with American scholars of various Evangelical Denominations.The commentary's subtitle—"Critical, Doctrinal, and Homiletical"—aptly describes the author's three-pronged approach to the biblical text. Each biblical book receives a lengthy introduction, often between 30-50 pages in length with some books receiving much more (the introduction to Revelation is upward of 80 pages). The book's primary divisions are then laid out, and for each section the author provides the KJV text (with brief textual notes), exegetical and critical comments, doctrinal and ethical interpretation, followed by homiletical and practical suggestions for application. Authors frequently quote from the writings of other commentators (e.g., Myer, Heubner, Alford, Starke, Quesnel), especially in the homiletical comments section.Lange's Commentary includes a number of unique features that add a great deal of value beyond the text-level commentary. Examples of this are theological and homiletical introductions to the Old Testament (157 pages) and New Testament (37 pages), general introductions for groups of biblical books (e.g., Three Middle Books of the Law, Poetical Books of the Old Testament, Pastoral Letters), and metrical/rhythmical versions of Job and Ecclesiastes."It promises to be a complete and useful Commentary and will prove especially valuable to ministers. It contains critical annotations of the text and its translation, and a threefold commentary, exegetical, doctrinal, and homiletical. Under these three heads the text is viewed under every aspect. It forms almost an exegetical library by itself." — The New EnglanderYou made it happen!Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures appeared as a Pre-Pub several years ago. At the time, it generated fewer sales than necessary to put it into production. A few years later, after many more earnest requests, the decision was made to give it one more try, this time on Community Pricing to see how it fared there.As a Community Pricing title it received little interest, generating less than fifty percent of the commitments needed. Nonetheless, there had been quite a number of vocal customers imploring us to produce this title. For that reason we once again offered Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures on the Pre-Pub page, and sent out a "Last Chance" email.The response was just a little bit more than enough to cover our costs and send it into production. Then we received an email from a user who asked "What about Volume 25?" (At the time, we were marketing it as the 24 volume print edition.) Well, we had never heard of Volume 25 and at first couldn't find anything on the Internet about it either. It did not show up in any of the collections we had seen.We won't spoil the surprise - so check out the Logos Blog entry and read the interesting story of how one user changed the scope of this entire project, and got every Lange's customer an extra volume for free!We can't easily recall any other title that has had such a dedicated and vocal "fan base" pleading for its release, so we decided to add Lange's long lost volume at no additional charge. It is one more way we can say "Thank you" for making this happen!Pre-Order your copy today!Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures (63 volumes)http://www.logos.com/products/prepub/details/2594Suggested Retail Price: $580.00 Logos Sale Price: $299.95 Pre-Publication Special: $239.95For all the details, please visit the website at:http://www.logos.com/products/prepub/details/2594Or call 800-875-6467 to order.
