Thoughts on E.J. Young's Books

I recently picked up for a nominal price E.J. Young's "Studies in Genesis One" and was wondering y'alls thoughts on the book.

Thanks.

Young is a very good conservative scholar. I have been reading through his Commentary on Isaiah.

I try to have in my library anything I find (that I haven't found already) by certain authors.

EJY is one of those.

He was a phenomenal scholar. I found the Genesis book quite helpful in his discussion of the creation days, even though I didn't agree with his conclusions.

I agree. E.J. Young is very good. I especially enjoy him in Isaiah.

I agree he is spot on on Isaiah, I have enjoyed reading the commentary I've read through the first volume and started on the second volume
