CINCINNATI, April 29, 2013 /
Christian Newswire/ -- Standard Publishing proudly announces the upcoming release of the
Standard Lesson Commentary, the nation's top-selling annual Bible commentary. Designed to enhance every Christian's understanding of Scripture, the 2013-2014 editions will be available for purchase on May 1, 2013.
A consistent best seller for the last 20 years, the Standard Lesson Commentary is used and trusted by thousands of churches to guide weekly discussions for an entire year of studying God's Word.
"The Standard Lesson Commentary is the nation's top-selling annual Bible commentary because it goes beyond the trending topics of the day," explains senior editor Jonathan Underwood.
Since the 1950's, each of the yearly editions has been based on the ISSL/Uniform Series, which follows a 6-year study plan for the entire Bible.
"It digs into the entire truth of God as told throughout Scripture and guides an entire year of weekly discussion," adds Underwood. "This makes it a trusted favorite of many churches and Christians."
"We credit the success of the Standard Lesson Commentary to the reliably solid material, which includes verse-by-verse exposition of Scripture, discussion questions, and adult-appropriate learning activities," says Stephanie Woeste, Vice President of Marketing.
The Standard Lesson Commentary is offered in 7 editions supporting both NIV® and KJV users. From hardback and paperback to the brand new Deluxe Edition that includes the large print Standard Lesson Commentary, reproducible student pages for each lesson, and an eCommentary DVD with hundreds of dollars in resources, users can choose the edition that fits their needs.
"We listened to adult Bible teachers and small group leaders from across the country when developing the new Deluxe Edition," explains Woeste. "They told us to put as much of what they need to teach in-depth studies as possible into a single edition, and that's exactly what we've done. They'll find their preparation easier and class materials as accurate and trustworthy as they've ever been."
"Our team is dedicated to producing meaningful Bible lessons for adults for each Sunday of the year, and we spend a lot of time thinking about and praying for those who will study from the Commentary," Underwood said.
The
Standard Lesson Commentary will be available for purchase May 1st at
www.standardlesson.com or anywhere Christian books are sold.
