The Hodder Bible Commentary: Luke

There are many ways to be lost in life, but the most serious is to be lost to God. Luke's Gospel introduces us to the people who met Jesus, understood his message, and experienced his saving power.

David Peterson's commentary shows us how we might have a better understanding of the significance of Jesus for ourselves, grasp hold of the salvation he offers, and be faithful disciples in our different world contexts today.

The Hodder Bible Commentary is a comprehensive 50-volume Bible commentary series. Doctrinally sensitive and globally aware, its goal is to encourage a deepened knowledge and understanding of Scripture.

What a delight to have David Peterson's commentary on Luke. Years of scholarly reflection, research, writing and teaching, put alongside Christ-honouring, life-changing preaching, are brilliantly distilled into one clarifying volume which makes sense of the text, and keeps the whole gospel and each part in brilliant balance. I'm thrilled to see this wonderful resource made available. -- Chris Green, Vicar of St James, Muswell Hill, UK
Here is an ordered, thoughtful, (technically) progressive, contextualised commentary which places Luke's gospel in the unfolding revelation of God, for his people and those seeking him. Luke himself would surely have approved. -- David Monro, Former Chair of the Oak Hill College Council and the Centre for Muslim Christian Studies, Oxford
This is yet another excellent work by accomplished Biblical scholar David Peterson. David has produced a commentary that will be helpful to those in full time ministry as well as to those lay folk (like me?) who need help in preparing the occasional expository talk. I have used the commentary and I commend it without reservation. -- Colonel Edward Armitstead
Peterson's scholarship is not flaunted, but it provides a solid bedrock to his immensely helpful Introduction, and to the comprehensive exposition that follows. He is well aware of divergent interpretations of the text, and conflicting views of its authenticity; but he gently and persuasively asserts an essentially conservative view of Scripture, informed by academic studies and by a broad understanding of church and cultural contexts. -- Steve Weatherly-Barton Preach Magazine
