Included are two newspaper advertisements (one from the Old Testament and one from the New Testament) to show you how this commentary was originally marketed. While this commentary is not known for its Greek or Hebrew exposition, the New Testament includes hundreds of references to, and explanations of, Greek words. The nearly 35,000 pages of material resulted in the largest e-Sword commentary known to exist, at 190+ megabytes. Unlike modern publishers, Exell was apparently not under any pressure to consolidate the number of pages. The collection also includes lesser known authors published in periodicles and smaller publications popular in that ara.

The Biblical Illustrator includes material from hundreds of famous authors of the day, including:Īnd so many more (listing them all would fill your monitor screen many times over). But today, the Biblical Illustrator provides life application, illumination, inspiriation, doctrine, devotion, and practical content for all who teach, preach, and study the Bible. This massive commentary was originally intended for preachers needing help with sermon preperation (because who else in that day had time to wade through such a lengthy commentary?). While other commentaries explain a Bible passage doctrinally, this work illustrates the Bible with a collection of:įor nearly every verse in the Bible. The Biblical Illustrator brings Scripture to life in a unique, illuminating way. Assisted by a small army of students, the Exell draws on the rich stores of great minds since the beginning of New Testament times. This remarkable work is the triumph of a life devoted to Biblical research and study.

You will recognize him as the co-editor of the famous Pulpit Commentary (this commentary is even larger than the Pulpit Commentary). Exell edited and compiled the 56 volume Biblical Illustrator commentary.
