Ephesians For You

Don Carson

Of the writing of commentaries there is no end, but few are the commentaries that are simultaneously careful with the text, yet cast at the level of popular exposition—and this one is among the very best.

This is my first introduction into the For You series and my first time reading anything by the author. I haven’t been disappointed. I have been using it for my own devotions and have found the book to be a real help and blessing.

The book is well produced and the typeset easy on the eye. The book is broken up into short sections which are ideal for private devotions.

I found the book very readable as the author explains things very clearly. The illustrations he uses are very fitting and helpful. There are plenty of applications for the believer today which help the ready to see what the letter to the Ephesians has to do with us today. Time and time again we are reminded of our relationship to Christ and the blessings we have in Him.

The author doesn’t skip over difficult issues e.g. election but seeks to tackle them and explain them in a refreshing way.

I really liked how at the end of each section there were questions for the reader to think about and meditate upon.

My overall impression of the book is that it is a book that is well worth reading. I enjoyed it so much I have already bought another book in the series and another book by the author. That is the best commendation I can give to this book.

I was given a free copy of this book in return for an impartial review.
