Of all the prayers of Jesus, the one recorded in the seventeenth chapter of John's Gospel is the most profound and magnificent.
Its words are plain, yet majestic; simple, yet mysterious. They plunge the reader into the unfathomable depths of the inter-Trinitarian communication between the Father and the Son, and their scope encompasses the entire sweep of redemptive history from election to glorification, including the themes of:
The veil is drawn back, and the reader is escorted by Jesus Christ into the Holy of Holies, to the very throne of God.

This volume of the MacArthur Old Testament Commentary Series (MOTC) explains the prophetic book of Zechariah. Designed to aid the preacher, this commentary is also intended to be read and applied by every believer for personal edification, blessing, and joy.
No eschatology is complete or true which does not embrace the prophecy of Zechariah. Written to comfort Israel after the remnant's return from Babylon, Zechariah's message assured the Israelites that the Lord had not abandoned His people.
Filled with visions, prophecies, signs, and vivid imagery, this revelation traces the flow of history to its climax when Christ will reign over the earth from His throne in Jerusalem. Zechariah predicted the coming of Alexander the Great, the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, the tyranny of the Antichrist, the battle of Armageddon, and the millennial reign of Christ.
The Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ, is the primary figure in Zechariah's revelation. Zechariah predicted Christ's entry into Jerusalem on a donkey, His betrayal for thirty pieces of silver, and His sacrificial death. Zechariah also revealed Christ's future return to the Mount of Olives and the establishment of His kingdom over the earth. At that time, Israel will turn to God, and the Lord will say, They are My people, and Israel will respond, Yahweh is my God (Zech 13:9); and so all Israel will be saved (Rom 11:26).
History will then reach its climactic point and Yahweh will be king over all the earth; in that day Yahweh will be the only one, and His name one (Zech 14:9).
What Others are Saying About the MacArthur Old Testament Commentary Series
God regenerates and sanctifies us through His Word, and we can be thankful for this commentary series where the words of Scripture are carefully studied and explained. Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation, Associate Dean of the School of Theology The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary I've read through the Bible twenty times, and I always heave a sigh when I arrive at Zechariah. I haven't quite found a commentary that can adequately explain its intriguing visions, that flying scroll, or that strange woman in a basket. That is why I'm so excited about John MacArthur's new commentary on this extraordinary book. Dr. MacArthur takes great pains to explain the prophet's visions and symbols, helping us see that Zechariah's peculiar actions were his way of drawing God's people into his timely message. Thank you, Pastor John, for giving us an easy-to-read yet thorough explanation of the amazing book of Zechariah. Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center
The war for the hearts and minds of our children is on, and John MacArthur's new book will show you where the strategic battles are being fought and how to engage biblically. Kirk Cameron - Husband, Father, Actor, Filmmaker
In The War on Children, bestselling author, John MacArthur, offers the tools needed to understand the enemy's battle plan and be ready for the next assault. As God's people, we need to:
Teach our children God's Word
Train them in righteousness
Give them wise and biblically based guidance
And above all, give them our extravagant love
Every day, on a multitude of battlefronts, Satan is deploying weapons of mass corruption against our children. Modern culture has been systematically designed with an agenda that is aggressively anti-God, anti-Christ, and anti-Scripture, intended to corrupt and consume young, impressionable hearts and minds.
We are in the middle of a dangerous ideological conflict with eternity at stake. Christian parents cannot simply float passively along with the drift of our culture. We need to:
Be aware of the threats this world poses to our children
Understand the enemy's battle plan and be ready for the next assault

One Chapter. One Monumental Chapter.
Each volume in this new book series from bestselling author John MacArthur focuses on one great chapter of the Bible.
In The Triumph of Love, focusing on Romans 8, we see that there is nothing that shall ever separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom 8:39).
Taken from the MacArthur New Testament Commentary, this book equips believers with transforming truth by explaining how the Holy Spirit:
Frees us from sin and death and enables us to fulfill the law
Changes our nature and empowers us for victory
Confirms our adoption
Guarantees our glory
And more
Our salvation was secured by God's decree from eternity past and will be held secure by Christ's love through all future time and throughout all eternity. In Romans 8, Paul allows absolutely no exceptions in regard to the believer's security in Christ.

This volume of the MacArthur Old Testament Commentary Series (MOTC) explains the prophetic books of Jonah and Nahum. Designed to aid the preacher, this commentary is also intended to be read and applied by every believer for personal edification, blessing, and joy.
The book of Jonah demonstrates that Yahweh is the Savior of both Jews and Gentiles. Instead of immediately destroying the Ninevites for their wickedness, God raised up Jonah to proclaim God's grace to them.
The Lord affirmed that He holds the sovereign prerogative to show compassion on whomever He wishes and to deliver those who repent. This wondrous grace of God culminates in the One who fulfilled the sign of Jonah and accomplished salvation for all who acknowledge their unworthiness, repent of their sin, and believe in Him. Thus, the book of Jonah points to the work of Christ and displays the heart of God to seek and save the lost.
In a sequel to the story, over a hundred years after Jonah preached to Nineveh, God raised up Nahum to pronounce judgment on the Ninevites.
While the Ninevites in Jonah's day repented and received mercy, later generations returned to their wicked ways and became objects of God's wrath. To those who presumed on God's kindness, Nahum declared that the God who is gracious is also righteous and just.
Ultimately, God's promise to destroy Nineveh comforted Israel and provided hope to all His people that He will keep His Word, both to preserve the righteous and to punish the wicked.

Daniel's prayer and seventy-week prophecy in Daniel 9 is unique and epic.
With Israel being in exile nearly seven decades, Daniel was eager for the nation's physical and spiritual restoration. However, the Lord revealed that His plans for Israel would reach into the distant future, encompassing a period of seventy weeks.
In this remarkable revelation, God outlined a precise chronology when Christ would come and die to achieve redemption, and when the Antichrist would rise and reign but ultimately be destroyed.
At the end, Christ will return, conquer the Antichrist, destroy Israel's enemies, and cause all Israel to turn to Him in repentance. Establishing universal and absolute peace, Christ will usher in His millennial kingdom and reign as King over all the earth.
