Wesley's Explanatory Notes on the Bible
John Wesley (1703–1791) was an English Anglican clergyman, theologian, and evangelist who, together with his brother Charles, founded the Methodist movement. His Explanatory Notes on the New Testament (1755) and Old Testament are foundational documents of Methodist theology, providing concise, practical commentary on every verse. Drawing heavily on the Gnomon of Bengel, Wesley's notes emphasize holiness, the transforming power of grace, and the practical demands of Christian discipleship.
