Handbook on the Pentateuch, 2nd ed.

Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy.

For more than twenty years, Victor Hamilton's handbook has been introducing
students to the Pentateuch. In this substantially revised second edition,
Hamilton moves chapter by chapter through the Pentateuch, examining the
content, structure, and theology. He surveys each major thematic unit of the
Pentateuch and offers useful commentary on overarching themes and connections
between Old Testament texts. For those who wish to do additional research, each
chapter is appended with a bibliography of recent, relevant scholarship.

An excellent introduction to the first five books of the Bible. Its " sensitivity to the literary structures and emphases in the texts as well as its
full awareness of classic and contemporary exegetical issues and scholarship
provide an essential introduction to the fascinating world of the Pentateuch.
Scholars in the field will benefit from Hamilton's presentation of new and
original ideas. - Richard S. Hess"

Hamilton provides an easily accessible and highly informative guide to the " books of Genesis through Deuteronomy. Drawing on the best of modern
scholarship, this handbook explores these major biblical writings in a manner
that is both thorough and in keeping with their status as divine revelation.
Amid the plethora of conflicting views expressed about the origins and contents
of the Pentateuch, Hamilton offers a balanced and sane analysis, supplemented
with up-to-date bibliographies. - T. Desmond Alexander"
