Sda - Bible Commentary

Here is the official content description for the (often abbreviated as SDA Bible Commentary or SDA BC).

Textual note: Gk. kosmos – the ordered creation, here meaning humanity in rebellion. Comment: The breadth of God’s love extends to all, not a predestined few. "World" ( kosmos ) indicates the entire human race, including those who reject Him. The cross is the supreme demonstration of the principle of self-sacrificing love, which is the foundation of God’s government. EGW Comment: "God gave His only-begotten Son... that He might take man’s case into His own hands, and make it possible for man to be reinstated into the favor of God." – The Signs of the Times , May 16, 1895. The SDA Bible Commentary is invaluable for understanding Scripture through the lens of Adventist theology. However, non-Adventist readers should be aware that its hermeneutic assumes the prophetic authority of Ellen G. White. For a purely historical-grammatical commentary without sectarian notes, other works (e.g., NICOT/NICNT ) may be preferred. For Adventist students, this set remains the gold standard. sda bible commentary
