Synopsis

Unmatched in detail, scholarly rigor, and refinement---even after 50 years. Harrison reviews the entire history of Old Testament criticism, setting the proper historical and theological context for the Hebrew Scriptures. He then discusses each book in the OT---along with an overview of the Apocrypha. His engagement with perennial issues of OT scholarship makes this an indispensable classic. 1344 pages, softcover from Hendrickson.
