Richard Sibbes' unique Bible commentary discusses how various
passages in scripture explain the human condition; the soul, the
believer's relationship to the divine, and their battles with sin.
For Sibbes, the Biblical lore explained much about the difficulties
of living, the challenges each person must face, and endeavouring
to reconcile the qualities of the soul with the eternal nature of
the heavenly divine. Through devotion to God and spurning the
influence and temptations of Satan, Christian believers can attain
greater happiness and fulfillment, together with a capacity to cope
with the difficulties inherent to life. Traversing the Bible and
psalms, Sibbes reveals lessons on soul nurturing from a variety of
sources; of particular interest is the book of Ecclesiastes, which
is a frank explanation of the human condition. Sibbes is keen to
demonstrate strategies which observant and moral people use to fend
off sin and the misfortunes of succumbing to it.
This reprinting of the complete seven-volume set of the writings of
'the heavenly Doctor Sibbes' is a notable event for all who have an
appetite for helpful and faithful biblical preaching in the Puritan
mould.
