Eerdmans has some excellent commentary series, and the Two Horizons Old/New Testament Commentary series is no disappointment. So far 18 volumes have been printed on OT and NT books, and now through the month of November Eerdmans is having a sale on Amazon on all 18 volumes for Kindle for under $50. Many commentaries alone are $50.
The Two Horizons series is a great series. I’ve read through Marianne Thompson’s Colossians & Philemon volume, and I’m working through James McKeown’s Genesis and Stephen Dempster’s Micah volumes. All have been very good. They are at both an academic level and a very readable level (though different authors vary). After the introduction, each volume works through the biblical text, and each end with a large section on theological themes of the book or letter. Not only is it a commentary on the book, but it draws the authors ideas together to show his thinking throughout the biblical text, how it adds to the canon, and how it reinforces the rest of the biblical texts.

Hi Spencer,
I’ve never understood the links that Eerdmans shares to Amazon. Every time I click on the link to go to Amazon, Amazon gives me the regular kindle price, not the discounted price. So how do you get the discounted price? Thanks!

Some of the prices are closer but none that I clicked on are exactly what the sale price says in the advert.

I went back through half of the books and they worked for me. Not sure what it could be then.
