Product Description
"The Historical Commentary on the Old Testament" is a new international series of commentaries that devotes explicit attention to the history of interpretation of biblical tradition in all its stages, both within and without the Hebrew canon. The aim of this commentary is to indicate what the intention of the Chronicler was in writing and composing his work, both as a whole and in its parts. Hence, as regards the synoptic passages, there is no detailed discussion of the historical and geographical background to the material in its original context.
