Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture Complete Set | ACCS (29 vols.)
Overview
The Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture (ACCS) does what very few of today’s students of the Bible can do for themselves. The vast array of writings from the Church Fathers—including many that are available only in the ancient languages—have been combed for their comment on Scripture. From these results, scholars with a deep knowledge of the fathers and a heart for the Church have hand-selected material for each volume, shaping, annotating, and introducing it to today’s readers. Each portion of commentary has been chosen for its salient insight, its rhetorical power, and its faithful representation of the consensual exegesis of the early Church.
Included in this series is the full commentary text of all 29 volumes from the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture (ACCS). Arranged canonically, each volume allows the living voices of the Church in its formative centuries to speak as they engage the sacred page of Scripture. Now even more accessible in digital format, this series will prove an uncommon companion for theological interpretation, spiritual reading, and wholesome teaching and preaching.
The Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture (ACCS) is an ecumenical project, promoting a vital link of communication between the varied Christian traditions of today and their common ancient ancestors in the faith. On this shared ground we listen as leading pastoral theologians of eight centuries gather around the text of Scripture and offer their best theological, spiritual, and pastoral insights.
Due to digital rights limitations, the Revised Standard Version (RSV) is not included in this product and does not automatically appear in this digital edition as it does in the print editions. Scripture texts are linked and will display the version you have set as your preferred Bible within the software. However, the Scripture version(s) available will depend on what Bible(s) you own. Also note, this product is the updated version of ACCS. Some content differs from the original edition. Pagination may slightly vary between the two editions.
- Provides 29 volumes—over 11,000 pages—of remarkable commentary
- Offers biblical scholarship from the early Church Fathers
- Gives compelling exegesis, relevant for today
Chronological snobbery—the assumption that our ancestors working without benefit of computers have nothing to teach us—is exposed as nonsense by this magnificent new series. Surfeited with knowledge but starved of wisdom, many of us are more than ready to sit at table with our ancestors and listen to their holy conversations on Scripture. I know I am.
—Eugene Peterson, James Houston Professor of Spiritual Theology, Regent College
All who are interested in the interpretation of the Bible will welcome the forthcoming multivolume series, Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. Here the insights of scores of early church fathers will be assembled and made readily available for significant passages throughout the Bible and Apocrypha. It is hard to think of a more worthy ecumenical project to be undertaken by InterVarsity Press.
—Bruce M. Metzger, professor emeritus of New Testament, Princeton Theological Seminary
Modern church members often do not realize that they are participants in the vast company of the communion of saints that reaches far back into the past and that will continue into the future, until the kingdom comes. This commentary should help them begin to see themselves as participants in that redeemed community.
—Elizabeth Achtemeier, Union Professor Emerita of Bible and Homiletics, Union Theological Seminary
Composed in the style of the great medieval catenae, this new anthology of patristic commentary on Holy Scripture, conveniently arranged by chapter and verse, will be a valuable resource for prayer, study and proclamation. By calling attention to the rich Christian heritage preceding the separations between East and West and between Protestant and Catholic, this series will perform a major service to the cause of ecumenism.
—Avery Dulles, Laurence J. McGinley Professor of Religion and Society, Fordham University
Few publishing projects have encouraged me as much as IVP's recently announced Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture with Dr. Thomas Oden serving as general editor. . . . How is it that so many of us who are dedicated to serve the Lord receive seminary educations which omitted familiarity with such incredible students of the Scriptures as St. John Chrysostom, St. Anathasius the Great and St. John of Damascus? I am greatly anticipating the publication of this commentary.
—Fr. Peter E. Gillquist, director of the Department of Missions and Evangelism, Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America

Every Generation had great thinkers who looked at the Bible and gave great answers that are true today. this is a way to look at the writings of the Early Church. Grow your understanding by what they wrote. We should be studying previous generations of Writers and take some of the Gems they found instead of trying to redefine what the Bible says to fit some modern way of political correctness or Social Justice view that are not part of the Bible. The Bible is God's Word. He has Revealed to every generation his Truth. INstead of ignoring the Early Church Fathers we should be looking for the their Guidance on how the Holy Spirit spoke to them,. Grow our faith with their Teachings as well as others from the Past. This set is a good one to start with. If you want to study one Book of the Bible it is worth just picking up that one book and add it to your study. Good solid teaching will be provided. See how God will Help you grow in understanding of His WORD and add it to the overview of Worshiping HIM. For the Bible is all about Worshiping GOD and gain Knowledge of Him

These commentaries are sweet. This is not necessarily because you're going to get the best or deepest exegetical explanation, but because they show you how the early church understood Scripture. It's enlightening, to see Scripture explained by people who are removed from the context of our modern culture. I also like how it's all been harvested and neatly synced up with the Bible verses, so that you can use it just like you would any other commentary on Logos. They also have a nice overview, which gives a brief summary of all the material, before it goes into the full comments.

This is one of my favorite commentaries on Logos because it is such a wonderful compilation of quotes from the first few hundred years of church history in commentary form.
