"Peake's Commentary on the Bible is a marvel of condensation. It is amazing how much Biblical information, critical theory, and doctrinal error can be packed into such a compact volume. Dr. Peake, the Editor, is one of the foremost Bible scholars of our day from a liberal standpoint. In producing this commentary, he has gathered about him a corps of sixty-one able assistants, many of whom are well known in the world of Bible scholarship. The list of contributors is impressive. This book contains a number of special articles on various subjects relating to the Bible and its contents. There is a brief introduction to each book of the Bible and a commentary on each chapter. There are also several maps and one of the best and most complete indexes to be found anywhere. The bibliography is valuable to the student. In each introduction a list of the best commentaries on the book under consideration is given and a general bibliography is to be found at the end of the volume. I wish all the one volume commentaries were as excellent in their arrangement of material as this one, but I am glad all are not like this one in their teaching. The position of this commentary is intensely liberal. It is the one volume commentary of Liberalism. One needs to read a book like this with thoughtful care and discrimination. This is not the commentary for our homes, for our Sunday-school workers, or for our Sunday-school libraries. The tendency of this book would be to shake the faith of many of our Christian workers in the Bible as the word of God. The book is barren of spiritual values. If a minister desires to have at hand a brief summary of the views of modern liberal Bible scholarship, this is a good book for the purpose; but he will find little to edify him in the perusal of its pages."… (más)
