4.0 out of 5 stars You won't want to put it down., October 9, 1999
This review is from: The Ivp Bible Background Commentary: Genesis-Deuteronomy (Hardcover)
I think it is a well written commentary. It gives good insights into the thoughts and culture of the OT period. It is not filled with the usual boring stuff. I think you will enjoy it
