J.C. Ryle wrote eloquently and easy to understand the commentary on the Gospel of Matthew.
John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) served the Lord as a minister of the Gospel in parish churches within the Church of England for almost forty years. He then became Bishop of Liverpool in 1880 and gained international prominence as preacher, Bible expositor, and author. Today he is best known for his plain and lively writings on practical and spiritual themes, reaching ordinary people. The great aim of his ministry was to encourage strong and serious Christian living. His tracts and books sold in the millions in the late 1800s; many have been republished in modern times. Ryle’s successor as Bishop of Liverpool commented, “The words of such a man acquire new force as we read them. Ryle lived near God, and God lived through him.”
