This commentary's subtitle — 'Defend the Faith', highlights its recurring emphasis on defending and promoting orthodox theology. Other significant themes include the conduct of public worship, the qualifications of elders and deacons (and the wives who have some share in their ministry), the personal godliness of the gospel minister, the proper spiritual and practical care of various members of the local church, and the right Christian use of material possessions.
Philip Graham Ryken (D. Phil., Oxford University) is senior minister of historic Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, USA, Bible teacher for the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals, and the author or editor of more than fifteen books.
