I really like what Jenses does in these little books. Decent questions, but their brief comments are even more useful. It is also great as an overview, because they will focus on the most important things, often lost in the forest of comments in commentaries, plus it's going to be more sermonic in character of the application than commentaries WITHOUT being just a transcript of someone's sermons, like Preaching the Word or Reformed Expository Commentary series, which is an incredible bonus.

For what it is and what's set to achieve - easy 5 stars.
