Greetings all,
Been a while. After I announced Relight Audio’s seemingly imminent release, I hit some pretty serious health things and became rather less than useful. That is to say, between symptoms and side-effects from poorly prescribed medications, I wasn’t able to work on much of anything for a non-trivial amount of time.
Anyway, as I begin to recover I’ve wanted to work on Relight. I’d say I’m not quite up to just dive in and make serious progress on the larger efforts like a native app or Relight Audio—but I did want to do something. So here is a new commentary!
John Gill is probably my favorite baptist—or at least he’s tied with John Bunyan and Charles Spurgeon, and of course my mom. His commentary is widely respected in the reformed community by baptists and reformed/presbyterian alike. This is his exposition of the entire Bible. One of his biggest strengths is how much interaction he does with the original languages—bringing a more technical approach to Relight for the first time (existing commentaries do some technical work, but it’s definitely more of an emphasis of Gill’s). And of course, Gill was a true 1689-style London Baptist, so his commentary is a great resource for baptists who come to a passage and think, “I wonder what a Puritan baptist might have said about this.” And I think that’s pretty neat. Tell all your baptist friends!
Other News
- The other thing with mentioning is just that as I recover, I expect more updates to come.
- One noteworthy thing is that we will transitioning away from this website (which costs us money to host) to a Discord server. One advantage besides being free will be that it will be easy for you guys to tag me if there’s a major issue like Relight going down or something.
