Praise for the Spurgeon Commentary series
The Spurgeon Commentary series helps you swim through the vast sea of Spurgeon’s sermons by compiling and organizing his brilliant sermons into a commentary. I hope more preachers, teachers, and students of God’s word will read and reap from the spiritual treasures overflowing in these Spurgeon commentaries. If you want more Christ-exalting, joy-inducing, text-illuminating comments on the Scriptures—stock up on Spurgeon.
—J. A. Medders, author and preacher of Christ
I am thrilled with the Spurgeon Commentary series by Lexham Press. The late Charles Spurgeon was perhaps one of the finest nineteenth-century preachers of the biblical text and his insights are pure gold.
—Nate Pickowicz, teaching pastor, Harvest Bible Church, Gilmanton Iron Works, New Hampshire; author of How to Eat Your Bible
Charles Haddon Spurgeon remains one of the greatest and most influential communicators of the word of God in history, and yet, he never wrote a commentary. To see his thoughts on a particular text during my sermon preparation is both immensely valuable and a profound privilege. I utilize the Spurgeon Commentary series every time I tackle a passage that Spurgeon has covered.

“‘God is not a man that he should lie, nor a son of humankind that he should change his mind’ (Num 23:19). The word ‘lie’ here includes beyond its ordinary meaning the thought of change, so that when we read that God cannot lie we understand by it not only that He cannot say what is untrue, but that having said something that is true He never changes from it and does not by any possibility alter His purpose or retract His word. This is very consolatory to the Christian—that whatever God has said in the divine purpose is never changed. The decrees of God were not written upon sand but upon the eternal brass of His unchangeable nature.” (Page 268)
“The infirmities of old age often create petulance, so the grace of God is to make the venerable Christian to be full of faith, love, and endurance.” (Page 297)
“If it is so that God cannot lie, then it must be the natural duty of all His creatures to believe Him.” (Page 276)
“If God has given us His peace, it is a treasure of untold value, a ‘very valuable pearl’ (Matt 13:46). To be at peace with God is better than to be a millionaire or Czar of all the Russias. Peace of mind, restfulness of heart, quiet of spirit, deliverance from care, from quarrelling, from complaining—I know that I need that kind of peace, and you need it too, do you not? You need it in your family, in your business, in your own hearts. Well, then, here we meet again, having this same need of peace. And when we get it, we meet once more in finding the same delicious enjoyment of it.” (Page 274)
“Churches without elders are like an army without officers. Those err greatly who despise order.” (Page 281)

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834–1892) began preaching at the New Park Street Chapel in London at nineteen years of age. He gained instant fame, becoming known as the “prince of preachers.” The congregation grew during his pastorate from two hundred members to more than five thousand, moving to the Metropolitan Tabernacle in 1861. Many of Spurgeon’s sermons were published each week and regularly sold more than twenty-five thousand copies in twenty languages. Spurgeon also founded the Pastor’s College (now Spurgeon’s College), various orphanages and schools, mission chapels, and numerous other social institutions.
