All right. I know this is cheating to claim a whole series for one of my top 20 “must pack” books, but this is my blog and I can do what I want. John MacArthur and I disagree on some things, especially in regard to the ministry of the Holy Spirit today. However, his commentaries are consistently my “go to” for in-depth and yet practical biblical exegesis. No fluffy stuff here, just good biblical scholarship. I am a better student of the Bible because of his commentaries. Therefore, his set of commentaries makes the cut of 20 “must pack” books.
