El comentario de la Biblia de Matthew Henry es reconocido por todas partes. Hace 50 anos el Sr. Allan Harman recibio un libro pequeno de bosquejos de sermones. Eran de Matthew Henry, de los sermones que predico a su congregacion en 1691. Harman organizo los sermones en una obra de esa doctrina fundamental: La promesa de gracia. El estilo muy claro de Matthew Henry es evidente y proporciona citas memorables. Matthew Henry's commentary on the Bible is legendary. Used by millions, it is a testament to his desire to make the whole Bible and its teaching reach the ordinary man. Fifty years ago Allan Harman was given a small, well-worn book of handwritten sermon notes. Harman started turning these long forgotten sermons into a revealing and deeply spiritual work on that most fundamental of doctrines, God's promise of grace. Henry's delightfully clear style is evident and provides succinct, memorable quotations that will stay with you.]
Henry's well-known Exposition of the Old and New Testaments (1708-1710) is a commentary of a practical and devotional rather than of a critical kind, covering the whole of the Old Testament, and the Gospels and Acts in the New Testament. After the author's death, the work was finished by a number of ministers, and edited by George Burder and John Hughes in 1811. Not a work of textual criticism, its attempt at good sense, discrimination, its high moral tone and simple piety with practical application, combined with the well-sustained flow of its English style, made it one of the most popular works of its type. Matthew Henry's six volume Complete Commentary, originally published in 1706, provides an exhaustive verse by verse study of the Bible. His commentaries are still in use to this day.
