Excellent overall with one flaw…
I love how easy it is to search by book, chapter, verse. The only downside to this app which is not a deal-killer but is quite annoying is that on my iPhone if the app closes or even times out, when I open the app my place where I had been reading has scrolled down considerably. I am still in same general section, but need to scroll up to fine my place which isn’t super easy as the commentary has a “wall of text” aspect to it.
Even so, I have used Matthew Henry on and off for pretty much 30 years.
Developer: Please fix the issue I mention above and I will be happy to increase to 5 stars.

Easy to use and reliable.
My thanks go to the developer for such an easy to use commentary. It saves me carrying my huge printed copy about with me.
Excellent Value for an outstanding Commentary
This is one of the best Apps available. There is great ease of use and a faithful reproduction of the original. I have found one or two typographical errors, but other than that I have nothing to regret in buying this App. If you are unfamiliar with Matthew Henry and are seeking a commentary that runs circles around the modern fluff, this is the one you want. I have only experienced one technical issue with it so far; in the commentary on Luke chapter 5, the page will not go past verse 37 and there are 39 verses in the chapter.

The Real Thing
This is the Real Thing - a serious working app - for the Real Thing thing - a serious, working Bible commentary: learned, though not contemporary in scholarship; faithful, though not contemporary in piety. Always, in Matthew Henry’s divinity, there are shafts of light, plentiful common sense, and deep humanity to be found.

Dark Mode
The new dark mode has been unhelpful… Most especially cos i cannot change it and cant report it.

Awesome app. God gave this man so much wisdom. I love his language and that KJV was the main translation of his day. So many modern commentaries use the modern perverted versions. He is very clear and challenges readers to look up word definitions. Would not not to be without it. I bought 6 volume hard copy and always to have non digital materials. So handy and I use this more every day. It’s so addicting as a bible aid.

Use this app CONSTANTLY!
I love Matt Henry's beautiful and eloquent writing. You can feel his passionate love for the Lord. I have the concise commentary in print, but having the whole thing in the palm of my hand, wherever I go, has been priceless. I have used this app to compliment my Bible study for years. It is so easy and straightforward to use; no unnecessary frills. Highly recommend!

Great way to help amplify your Bible understanding!
This is my primary go-to when I find a passage in the Bible which is confusing or I just need more depth of understanding. It is very comprehensive and user friendly. I highly recommend it.

Matthew Henry's Commentary is a time tested gold standard
I highly recommend Matthew Henry's Commentary. He was a brilliant pastor and theologian who brought much to the church in the way of his commentary. His theology is sound and any library should include his volumes.
