This review is from: The Book of Job (New International Commentary on the Old Testament) (Hardcover)
I felt like this commentary offer a helpful balance between historical perspective, understand of the Ancient Near East Culture as well as the theological and practical implications of Job's experience. The author also did a great job offering a variety of different understandings or perspectives into various passages, not merely his own. I think they great insight in the responses of Job and his friends into the experience of suffering and yet remained very theo-centric. The section on the last for chapters where God responds was insightful and well written. I would recommend this commentary to anyone looking to study the story of Job.

This review is from: The Book of Job (New International Commentary on the Old Testament) (Hardcover)
Conservative scholarship with alternative interpretations presented. Verse by verse commentary, historical/socio-cultural exposition and extensive footnotes. In addition, author displays lyrical writing skills detailing both profound spiritual and epic literary significance of Book of Job. Highly recommended.
