Acts by Guy Prentiss Waters

Guy Waters' commentary on Acts delves deeply into the text of Acts, approaching it in a way that is theological, yet straightforward and clear. Application sections show how the redemptive-historical events during the time of Acts still apply to the church today.

"Guy Waters's Study Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles is exegetically and theologically sound, cogently reasoned and clearly written. I highly recommend this commentary to pastors and teachers preparing to preach and teach Acts, and to anyone interested in a readable exposition of Luke's unique account of the risen Lord Jesus' words and deeds through his chosen witnesses."

- Dennis E. Johnson Ph.D., Professor of Practical Theology, Westminster Seminary California

"Dr. Waters is the ideal commentator on Acts. Scholarly, pastoral, theological - all these and more combine in making this my first resource for Luke's second volume. An outstanding contribution to the series and deserving of the appellation, 'Essential!'"

- Derek W. H. Thomas The Robert Strong Professor of Systematic and Pastoral Theology, RTS Atlanta

In an age of multiplying commentaries, some of them very technical and some exceedingly popular, Guy Waters has contributed a midlevel work that is robustly theological, written in straightforward English, and designed to be edifying. This is a commentary that will make many friends among serious Bible readers.
