Book Description

November 1, 1996 New International Biblical Com (Old)(Qualtiy Paper) (Book 4)
Section by section exposition with key terms and phrase highlighted and all Hebrew transliterated. A seperate section of notes at the close of each chapter provides additional textual and technical comments. Each commentary also includes a selected bibliography as well as Scripture and subject indexes. This set is for serious and general readers alike. Wright is Principal of All Nations Christian College in England. His Ph.D. is from Cambridge University.

"This is a volume that moves the art of Old Testament commentary forward. His vigour of style and argument makes it more than mere commentary, but a work of theology itself. In Chris Wright, Deuteronomy has found an exponent who has shown its power and relevance to the modern world, and who even borrows some of its passion in his own writing."
—Gordon McConville, Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education

5.0 out of 5 stars superb commentary, July 15, 2007
This review is from: Deuteronomy (Paperback)
Rarely do I read a commentary that provokes my thinking and provides insight in the way this commentary has. The author not only has a mastery of the material in Deuteronomy better than any other commentary I have on the book, but he also shows its application to people under the New Covenant and nations in general. I have grown in my understanding not only of Deuteronomy but the Mosaic Law as a whole through reading this book. I heartily recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good!, January 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Deuteronomy (Paperback)
This is an excellent resource on the book of Deuteronomy. It is very detailed and relatively easy to read. I would highly suggest it. As always, you must purge out certain items that you will not agree with. Ultimately, however, you will find the book to be an excellent commentary.
