Description
Matthew Henry Complete Commentary on the Whole Bible
Originally written in 1706, Matthew Henry's six volume Complete Commentary provides an exhaustive look at every verse in the Bible.
Matthew Henry's well-known six-volume Exposition of the Old and New Testaments (1708–1710) or Complete Commentary, provides an exhaustive verse by verse study of the Bible. covering the whole of the Old Testament, and the Gospels and Acts in the New Testament. After the author's death, the work was finished (Romans through Revelation) by thirteen other nonconformist ministers, partly based upon notes taken by Henry's hearers, and edited by George Burder and John Hughes in 1811.
Henry's commentaries are primarily exegetical, dealing with the scripture text as presented, with his prime intention being explanation, for practical and devotional purposes. While not being a work of textual research, for which Henry recommended Matthew Poole's Synopsis Criticorum, Henry's Exposition gives the result of a critical account of the original as of his time, with practical application. It was considered sensible and stylish, a commentary for devotional purposes.
Famous evangelical Protestant preachers such as George Whitefield and Charles Spurgeon used and heartily commended the work, with Whitefield reading it through four times - the last time on his knees. Spurgeon stated, "Every minister ought to read it entirely and carefully through once at least."
Henry's reputation rests upon his renowned commentary, An Exposition of the Old and New Testaments (1708-10, known also as Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible). He lived to complete it only as far as to the end of the Acts, but after his death other like-minded authors prepared the remainder from Henry's manuscripts. This work was long celebrated as the best English commentary for devotional purposes and the expanded edition was initially published in 1896. Instead of critical exposition, Henry focuses on practical suggestion, and his commentaries contains rich stores of truths.

Matthew Henry Bible Commentary Reviews
Excellent app
For anyone who wants to go deeper in their knowledge and understanding of scripture and have deeper devotions with the Lord, I highly recommend reading Matthew Henry! Here is a man that spent a great deal of his time on his knees praying and seeking God for interpretation and explanation of scripture, so that he could bring himself and others the Word of the Lord. Google him and find out about this amazing man of God, and then read some of his comments about your favourite Scriptures and Bible stories and you’ll see why people who want to go deeper with God use Matthew Henry as one resource to accomplish the task. He is probably the most quoted commentator in history. I love reading Matthew Henry, and I really like using this app; it is very well organized and easy to use. Thanks so much to the people who created it!!!

Matthew Henry commentary has excellent biblical facts to accurately enrich my understanding of God’s Word. Thank you for this wonderful important resource for bringing deeper truths to knowing and growing in God and the LordJesus.
Best Commentary App
This is my number 1 favorite app the commentary really explains the oracles of God, and the imbedded bible makes it easy to use. There are links to verses in the commentary that you don’t need to open the Bible again it redirects you on a click. Thank you.

Good App!
This app works very well, and I just love Matthew Henry’s timeless insight into God’s word! His depth of wisdom and knowledge into scripture is inspiring!
I love reading my bible and this style is very accessible and accurate.
The electronic version is so portable that I am not carrying my bible with me as often. I know I can depend on your version to be correct .. although I am still learning to use the app.
