| | | CHRIST CRUCIFIED: The Marrow of the Gospel in 72 Sermons on Isaiah 53
Not a commentary but a wealth of comment nevertheless; and 700 pages for under $20! SGCB | Naphtali Press CHRIST CRUCIFIED: The Marrow of the Gospel in 72 Sermons on Isaiah 53 for $19.95 each First published in 1683, then in 1686, this collection of sermons was reprinted six times in the eighteenth century. The present reprint is carefully and beautifully done; it uses the 1702 edition as the base text but also takes the other editions into account.
This book belongs in the class of Friedrich Krummacher's 'The Suffering Savior.' Like Krummacher, Durham was gifted at describing the sufferings of Christ through illustration, though his language is now antiquated. For example, in describing Christ's agony in Gethsemane, he writes, "There was such a striving, wrestling and conflicting, not with man without him, but with inward pressures on his spirit, that he is like one in a barrace, or ****-pit, or engaged in a duel with a mighty combatant, sore put to it, very far beyond aught that we can conceive of, so that he sweat great drops of blood."

I'd like to recommend this book to anyone who hasn't purchased it yet. It is certainly worth the price, and it's quite a beautifully put together book.
There's a nice bio at the beginning and the sermons are not that long, but still filled with a lot of thought-provoking points.
Thanks Chris, again, for all the work you put into this.
