An Introduction to the Old Testament (2nd edition)

This second edition of An Introduction to the Old Testament
integrates and interacts with recent developments in Old Testament scholarship.
Several distinctive set it apart from other introductions to the Old
Testament:
* It is thoroughly evangelical in its perspective
* It emphasizes 'special introduction' - the study of individual books
* It interacts in an irenic spirit with the historical-critical method
* It features points of research history and representative scholars rather
than an
exhaustive treatment of past scholarship
* It deals with the meaning of
each book, not in isolation but in a canonical context
* It probes the meaning of each book in the setting of its culture.
Including callouts, charts, and graphs, this text is written with an eye on
understanding the nature of Old Testament historiography. This upper-level
introduction to the Old Testament offers students a solid understanding of
three key issues: historical background, literary analysis, and theological
message.
Authors: Tremper Longman and Raymond B. Dillard.
