I have benefitted significantly from Andrew Reid’s teaching and thinking on the books on Samuel for many years – what a rich provision for preachers and bible study leaders to have this comprehensive teaching guide! The format of this series suits Andrew’s approach down to the ground – he summarises the scholarship on the books with a beautifully delicate touch, moves smoothly into the vital task of breaking up the book, and backs that up with a wealth of exegetical insight, embedded seamlessly in insights for teaching. This will be an invaluable (and should be a compulsory!) companion for anyone teaching 1st Samuel…. and bring on 2nd Samuel!

While not spoon–feeding his readers, Andrew provides much theological and practical assistance for the expositor and Bible study leader. Teaching 1 Samuel will make you want to do it. Indeed, anyone who reads Andrew’s book can have little excuse for making a mess of an exposition of 1 Samuel.
