A Study Companion to Introduction to the Hebrew Bible

John J. Collins' Introduction to the Hebrew Bible is one of the most widely used textbooks in the world, and for good reason. Balanced and richly informative, it introduces current thinking and leads the student into the important interpretive questions. This Study Companion is tied directly to the Introduction and features essential primary readings keyed to the text, along with a running timeline feature and discussions of technical terms, archaeological sites, and methods and concepts. Students can use the study guide as a workbook and a handy complement to the textbook and the Hebrew Bible itself.
