I used this in our bible study of old testament. I shared with my Jewish fellow student and gave it to him as a present. It is very academic, scholarly and requires close reading. It is not for the beginer student-- other bible study and references, plus a good teacher is helpful.

This is a great text for serious study. Delivery on time and the product is in the condition advertized.

When ordering this book, I thought it was an updated or revised version of the 1991 book of the same title by Moody Press. It was a bit disheartening to discover only a new cover on a book that I already have. Next time I will pay much greater attention.

This book has an annoying habit of sucking you into a topic and then switching to the next topic. It may be good for readers who just want a little insight to broaden their knowledge. For readers wanting a well-written and complete study, you may wish to try books that focus on specific aspects or characters, rather than the entire Pentateuch. The author may have tried to cram too much into too few words, thereby making it difficult to follow. I had many questions not addressed and read many pages regarding Bible passages I felt to be self explanatory. God bless all!
