William Barclay (1907-1978) is known and loved by millions worldwide as one of the greatest Christian teachers of modern times. His insights into the New Testament, combined with his vibrant writing style, have delighted and enlightened readers of all ages for over half a century. He served for most of his life as Professor of Divinity at the University of Glasgow, and wrote more than fifty books--most of which are still in print today.

The Good Book Stall

This is a compilation of Bible readings and the notes that accompanied them written by William Barclay. They are taken from The New Daily Study Bible series, written many years ago, reprinted time and time again and still as relevant today. This new series of booklets brings together under different subject titles, familiar readings together with William Barclay’s thoughts, enabling a fresh look at, in this case, the Easter story. Using passages from the four Gospels, Corinthians and Acts, the Easter story is brought alive for us and this booklet can be read straight through or read passage by passage as it was originally intended.
