The Books of Ezra and Nehemiah [PDF ebook] 
an Exegetical and Doctrinal Commentary

Presented here, in paperback for the first time, is John Peter Lange’s ‘Theologischhomiletisches Bibelwerk’. Intended to help preachers prepare sermons the commentary series is essentially biblical and evangelical catholic.
This nineteenth-century commentary has served as a standard reference for more than a century. Many early reviewers regarded Schaff’s edition with his additional material as superior to the original.
It has proven to be a complete and useful commentary and continues to prove especially valuable to ministers. It contains critical annotations of the text and its translation, and a threefold commentary, exegetical, doctrinal, and homiletical. Under these three heads the text is viewed from every aspect.
