This commentary on Ezekiel holds rich rewards for the reader. Peter C. Craigie writes of this complex book, "We may never grasp its message fully, but in the attempt we shall be enriched enormously." His illuminating study enables the reader better to understand the vocation and the message of an extraordinary prophet. Exiled in Babylon, Ezekiel embodied all the varieties of prophetic experience. The message he delivered to the people who lived in this difficult time centered on the holiness of God. Even though he foretold doom and judgment, the prophet held out the promise of hope, based on the continuing mercy and forgiveness of God.

For decades, millions of Christians have discovered William Barclay's Daily Study Bible to be the ideal New testament commentary series for both devotional reading and serious Bible study.  Now, carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay, The Daily Study Bible has been extended into a coverage of the entire Old Testament.  Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, The Daily Bible Study now provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Old Testament writers were saying then and what God is saying today.
