Most of these commentaries are not by Dispensationalists. Nor are they by Free Grace advocates. But there is still much excellent information in these commentaries.

Here is how I recommend using commentaries. Ask God to open His Word to your understanding. Study the verse or passage you are interested in before going to the commentary literature. Try to decide what it means. Underline or highlight key words. Do any word studies that you decide would be helpful. After doing your own study, then go to the commentaries. What you are looking for is observations about the text, not interpretations per se. Maybe the commentator has made some observations you missed. If his interpretation is different from yours, then give yourself some time to think about (meditate on) the text. You probably want to consult more than one commentary and maybe some study Bibles too. Talk to your pastor or other solid Bible teachers in your church about the passage. That is an often-overlooked step.
