THOTC: Ezra and Nehemiah

Two features especially distinguish the Two Horizons Old Testament
Commentary series: theological exegesis and theological reflection. Both of
these features are fully realized in this THOTC volume on Ezra and Nehemiah by
David J. Shepherd and Christopher J. H. Wright.
Following an introduction and concise, verse-by- verse commentary on
both books, Shepherd and Wright highlight key ways in which these Old Testament
texts continue to speak to us today. They closely examine what Ezra and
Nehemiah tell us about God and the people of Israel, reflect practically on
leadership, and engage critically with those portions of the text (such as
Ezra's dissolution of the Judeans' marriages with foreigners) that
present special problems for contemporary readers.
Offering deep theological insight throughout, this volume will prove
essential for students, pastors, and other Christian leaders seeking to engage
in theological interpretation of Scripture.
