"The Reformed Expository Commentary series from P & R is a gift to the Church in this generation. In his commentary on 1 Samuel, The Reverend Rick Phillips provides a Scripturally faithful, satisfyingly readable, and spiritually challenging series of expositions which will, through the presence of the Spirit in this messages, bring increased strength to the soul of the believer and deeper insights for the study of the pastor. Pastor Phillips has obviously been like a diver, going deep down, in his study of the Word of God in 1 Samuel, to uncover the pearls of heaven in these chapters. His work will bless the Church as those pearls adorn the reader. As Samuel wrote in 1 Samuel 30:6, 'But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God' and that shepherd-king found courage in the midst of his challenges through his refuge in God, so, too, desperate disciples in these days will find power from on high in these pages. I commend Rick Phillips work without hesitation and believe that those who will take a season to study this work will be strengthened in the Lord our God"--Publisher description.

1 Samuel is my first venture into the Reformed Expository Commentary series. I picked up this book as an aid to a bible study I was leading through 1 Samuel with a fantastic group of senior adults. I had some other commentaries that were authored by Richard Phillips, so I knew him to be a sound theologian who handled the text well. His name actually drew me to try out this new series. And boy am I glad I did!
1 Samuel is not a technical commentary, though it does not ignore technical issues or syntactical difficulties. Phillips just deals with them in succinct ways and refers readers to more technical offerings if they still have questions. This commentary should be classified as pastoral. It would be an amazing tool for any pastor, bible study leader, or layman who yearns to read deeper. Phillips does a great job of viewing the narrative passages of 1 Samuel through a Christological lens. Without forced allegorization, he sees Christ and the covenantal nature of God in the text. He helps the reader to understand how the drama surrounding David, Samuel, and Saul point to spiritual truths that are more than moral tails.
I strongly recommend this work! ( )
