How This Commentary Works

Easy to Read

Our desire is to make deeper Bible study accessible to all. You don't need a theology degree or knowledge of Greek to understand Scripture. Whether you're new to Bible study or have studied for years, our goal is to make the Scriptures easier to understand.

Scripture interprets Scripture

We believe the Bible is its own commentary and must be rightly divided. Our goal is to let the Word of God speak for itself, with other relevant passages cited throughout to help explain, clarify, and illuminate the text.

Free for everyone

No account and no paywall. The truth of Scripture is meant to be shared openly, without barriers, and made available to everyone. Freely we have received, and freely we give. Matthew 10:8
