Does anyone know if the complete and unabridged edition of Ryle's Expository Thoughts on the Gospels is available online?
I already have an old paperback copy of Matthew and Mark from the 4 vol. Baker series, so it's really Luke and John that I am after. I found some volumes in Google Books but they don't appear to have them all. Grace Gems does appear to have them, but they are not unabridged (the notes are missing) and have been modernized to some extent. You can compare here and here from John 13:1-5 to see the difference. There are over 6 pages of notes in the original.
I may end up shelling out for the Baker hardcover 4 vol. set, which I'm assuming is complete, unabridged, unmodernized, etc. just like the volume I have now, which appears to be a reprint of the original Matt. and Mark expositions. Doing that is probably cheaper than paying individually for the Banner of Truth paperback volumes on Luke and John, at least at the prices at which I've seen them. For example CVBBS has them at $8.35 apiece, and that would be for 2 vols. of Luke and 3 vols. of John, totalling $41.75 whereas they have the hardcover Baker set of all 4 Gospels for $29.99. Other than the pretty pictures on the covers of the BOT volumes, what's the difference between these two editions? Darker print maybe?
