THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. MARK.
Academy.—“Dr. Chadwick has performed his task admirably. He keeps
close to his subject, avoiding irrelevant and lengthy comment. He is
thoughtful and penetrating in his criticism, and yet concise and
epigrammatic when he wishes.”
Scotsman.—“It is at once scholarly, popular, and orthodox, and
written in clear, vigorous English.”
Record.—“Dr. Chadwick’s style is characteristic, thoughtful, clear,
and vigorous. He is never commonplace or trivial.”
English Churchman.—“A valuable, interesting, and delightful work,
almost every page of which contains something worthy of quotation.”
Christian.—“If the volumes to come be like the one before us they
may be sure of a warm welcome. Dr. Chadwick has caught something of
the vividness of style and onward rush which characterise the writer
he expounds. Sober in judgment, markedly Scriptural in tone, well
acquainted with exegetical lore, and qualified by patient
investigations to give an individual opinion on disputed points, he
makes good his claim to help and instruct students of Mark’s
Gospel.”
Methodist Recorder.—“We are glad to say that the beginning of a very
promising series is, in our opinion, distinctly good, and that Dean
Chadwick has hit the mark specially aimed at exceedingly well. We
have found ourselves many sparkling and memorable sentences in his
pages. We hope the ‘Expositor’s Bible’ has many other volumes in
store as instructive as the first instalment.”
Expositor.—“Dean Chadwick’s readers, even in the first pages, become
aware that they are in the company of a thoroughly original writer,
who repeats nothing, echoes nothing, imitates no one. It is with a
feeling of thankfulness his readers follow him from passage to
passage of the Gospel, finding new truth in familiar words and
incidents, and, unable to confine themselves to the limits they had
set for their day’s reading, are lured on to trespass on to-morrow’s
portion. There is every quality here that is desirable in an
expositor—reverence for his text, sufficient information about it,
sympathetic insight, and keen observation of men and manners.
Equally successful in opening up the significance of the text and in
applying it to present conditions of life, Dean Chadwick has given
us an admirable specimen of what an expositor’s Bible should be.”
