Old Testament Commentary Survey - Softcover

For the student, minister, and layperson alike, Tremper Longman's Old Testament Commentary Survey makes finding the best Old Testament commentaries easy. In this third edition, Longman has pared down his lists to focus on the best of established commentaries and added comments on many commentaries published in recent years. He lists a number of works available for each book of the Old Testament, gives a brief indication of their emphases and viewpoints, and evaluates them. Longman also indicates who would most benefit from the commentary under consideration (scholar, minister, layperson). Finally, he summarizes his top recommendations for those trying to build a library that covers every book of the Old Testament.
