This is a two year daily devotional. It is a fully updated and unabridged edition of Spurgeon's 600,000 word classic, originally titled The Interpreter, replacing selections from the King James Version with the English Standard Version. Great care has been taken to retain Spurgeon's views and illustrations while replacing 19th century British English with 21st century American English.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Author · 173 books
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London's famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian, John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues, Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861, the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle.
