One of my favorite portions of Scripture to read is Proverbs. I like to read the day’s chapter of Proverbs. Today (a day which will live in infamy) is December 7 – – which means I would read Proverbs 7.
While Proverbs is one of my favorite books, Derek Kidner is one of my favorite commentators on Proverbs. His commentaries are short and straight-forward for average readers.
Here is a good Christmas gift idea. Give someone Kidner’s commentaries on Proverbs. Challenge them to try and read a chapter of Proverbs a day at least 4 days a week during 2009. This is a very doable goal.
I was reminded of Kidner and Proverbs this morning when I saw C.J. Mahaney’s post here.
You can find Kidner’s commentaries here.
