THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES
Editor: Linda Foster General foreword: John Drane
World-renowned for his thought-provoking Daily Study Bible series, William Barclay is one of the best-loved commentators on the Bible. His brilliant communication, down-to-earth approach and sheer enthusiasm inspire spirituality and faith among his readers. Over 7 million people worldwide have bought The Daily Study Bible series, in many languages.
New readers will find Barclay's wide-ranging insight readily accessible in The New Daily Study Bible series. Barclay's language has been sensitively updated, and out-of-date references have been removed. Readers familiar with his work will find it enhanced throughout with explanation of contexts, sources for quotations and other details.
The New Daily Study Bible series keeps the cadences of Barclay's inimitable style and his own original translations of the New Testament texts. Through this exciting new revision, Barclay's distinctive voice, which has spoken to so many in past years, will continue to help new generations 'to know bettter their Bible, their God and their Saviour'.
