Candlish on Genesis?

[toddpedlar]

Does anyone know anything about the edition of Candlish's exposition of Genesis that was put out by Sovereign Grace Publishers? Is it the full thing, or an abridgment? I ask because it's mentioned on their website as being only 500 pages long, whereas I know that the work is quite significant in length - and expected something more like 2 volumes of this size. Is it, perhaps, a 2-column version?

My edition (Kregel) is 844 pages. The pages have fairly large print, and Sovereign Grace is known to print in much smaller type-face. Therefore, I would not be at all surprised if it were the full length, but I do not know for certain.

I think I have the sovereign grace edition. It is ultra-fine print. I don't believe it is abridged.

I hate the edition, but barring a free replacement, I will never give it away. He's too good.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it - the price was right, and I've heard too many good things about his exposition to pass it up.

Is the primary issue the too-tiny print? I've got other SGP books and they seem nicely enough bound.

If you like electronic editions, Libronix has Candlish on Genesis. I agree with Lane--He's great.
