Is preaching the word of God, or is it commentary on the word of God?

Re: Poll: What is Preaching?

It is talking LOUD for the purpose of self gratification. Shouting so that those listening can shout BACK in "agreement". It is about repeating a few well known bible versus, each with a "ahhhh huh!" appended to the end while the speaker basks in the stage glory.

I just do a little internal audit every time I hear classic preaching now and think "Can everything this person said in the last 5 or 10 minutes be said in about 30 to 60 seconds?".
