    The Bible was as described and in very good condition, with no tears or markings inside. It was an amazing price compared to other Sellers and new copies. The Seller was very quick to respond to my question. It was package fairly well in a bubble wrap envelope that was taped down all the way around it, without a box, which made me a bit nervous but everything was great once opened. I would buy from this Seller again.

    Excellent condition! The book was better than described. Well-wrapped for shipping, and it arrived a day ahead of schedule. I'm totally satisfied with it. NB: This commentary comes in various formats. Some are called "complete" when they are abridged. When I asked the sellers for specifics, they sent me photos of the actual text. This helped me to see which book was the version I wanted. So kudos for a convincing demonstration.
