Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

The first book in this series, this text focuses on textual comments and believer edification of Genesis and Exodus. Although the text isn't focused on textual research of a theological exegesis, the commentary does try to bring the ideas and assertions made by Abraham, Joseph, Moses and other figures of the pre-covenant founding of the nation of Israel. This book is handy for anyone who wants to read into commentary history as well as to get a good solid look at how the texts of Genesis and Exodus can apply to our lives.
