A new commentary for today's world, The Story of God Bible Commentary explains and illuminates each passage of Scripture in light of the Bible's grand story.The first commentary series to do so, SGBC offers a clear and compelling exposition of biblical texts, guiding everyday readers in how to creatively and faithfully live out the Bible in their own contexts.

We see God working indirectly behind the scenes, giving us a theology of divine and human cooperation, as those who pray for God&’s blessings participate in answering their own petitions as well as the prayers of others. In Esther&’s story, we recognize our own world today, often experiencing it as a place where God seems hidden. Her book challenges us in unique ways.Edited by Scot McKnight and Tremper Longman III, and written by a number of top-notch theologians, The Story of God Bible Commentary series will bring relevant, balanced, and clear-minded theological insight to any biblical education or ministry.
