Langham Publishing introduces The Branch Exposition of the Bible: A Preacher’s Commentary on the Entire Bible

“A Preacher’s Companion”

Langham Publishing is delighted to announce the launch of The Branch Exposition of the Bible: A Preacher’s Commentary of the Old Testament, an outstanding commentary on the entire Old Testament written by Michael A. Eaton — a distinguished preacher, scholar and pastor. 

Together with the previously published New Testament volume, this exposition meets the needs of preachers, scholars, and ordinary Christians alike, helping open God’s word and shed its light on life, ministry, and teaching. “Profound without being heavy”, it makes biblical scholarship accessible to all so they can mature in faith and righteousness. 

With experience in ministering across Africa, India and the West, Michael A. Eaton helps us understand the meaning of the Bible and taste its fruit. This commentary on the Old and New Testament accessibly engages with the biblical languages, gives application for our lives and leads us through each book of the Bible so that we can meet the resurrected Jesus Christ in the pages of Scripture.

Rev. R. T. Kendall (PhD), Kendall Ministries, says about The Branch Exposition of the Bible:  The most valuable commentary on the Bible to come along in a century.

Marcus Herbert, Pastor, Cornerstone Church, Johannesburg (South Africa), writes:  In producing “The Branch Exposition of the Bible,” Michael Eaton has written one of the most helpful tools any preacher or scholar of Scripture could hope for. It is refreshing to have a scholar of Michael’s ability use all that learning, wisdom and insight to open the Scriptures to us, revealing Christ and His Kingdom.

Christopher J. H. Wright (PhD), Global Ambassador, Langham Partnership, commends:  Michael Eaton was one of those rare biblical scholars whose years of pastoral and preaching experience enabled him to write expositions of the biblical text that are profoundly simple without being simplistic and shallow.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Michael A. Eaton pastored pioneering, multi-ethnic churches in some of Africa’s biggest and most influential cities, including Nairobi, Johannesburg, and Lusaka, for 40 years. As a young man he sat under the teaching of Martyn Lloyd-Jones at Westminster Chapel, a church he maintained a long-standing relationship with throughout his life. Michael’s doctorate was on the Christian and the Mosaic law. He lectured in theological institutions and had a vibrant preaching ministry in India, the UK, the United States and across Africa. Michael went to be with the Lord in 2017, before The Branch Exposition of the Bible reached publication.
