Jeanne Guyon


Judges


NO Chapter Titles


"In reading this book, you will notice that Jeanne Guyon presents a more inward, Christ-centered perspective than is usually found in our present-day concept of Christian commentaries….  In this volume [she] did not comment on every verse and chapter.  Rather, she selected certain verses."


Exodus


NO Chapter Titles 


"The influence of Jeanne Guyon has never wavered with the passing of centuries.  Her writings have influenced movements such as the Moravians, the Quakers, the Methodists and the Little Flock.  Three hundred years later she is still one of the most influential people in the lives of those who seek a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ."

Job


NO Chapter Titles


"…What was it that motivated this noblewoman, keeping her faithful to her unpopular beliefs and causing her to rest joyfully in God's will - even in the shadow of dungeon walls?  Jeanne Guyon was a woman who understood the cost of the words: "For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."  Here is her commentary on the book of Job.




Song of Songs


NO Chapter Titles


A study of The Song of Solomon from the viewpoint of the deeper Christian life.  


"…both scholars and history have been kind to Guyon's interpretation of The Song of Songs.  At that time her interpretation of this particular book had never been presented from the view she took.  She makes the book personal, a story of love between believer and Lord.  All commentaries before had seen the bride either as the church or as Israel.  Today many who study this book conclude that not only is Guyon's basic thesis correct, but her interpretation of the book sound.  Her insight into The Song of Songs has been historically influential."

Madame Guyon "… greatly influenced the life of Fenelon, one of the most famous clergymen in France's history and earned the wrath of the other, Bossuet.  The conflict between these two giants over her teachings led to her disgrace in  the king's court and then to her imprisonment.  The clash between Bossuet and Fenelon enthralled and scandalized the whole of France.  The continuing feud had to be settled by the Pope himself."
