Editorial Reviews
Review
In the crowded genre of biblical commentaries, this series will surely find a niche among students and pastors, who need more lexical, morphological, and syntactical help than most commentaries today offer. Tucker's volume reflects a remarkable amount of erudition and hard work, and the appearance of his volume bodes well for the series generally. --Bill T. Arnold, Asbury Theological Seminary

This review is from: Jonah: A Handbook on the Hebrew Text (Baylor Handbook on the Hebrew Bible) (Paperback)
Tucker's handbook on the Hebrew text of Jonah is an excellent addition to the library of any intermediate student of Ancient Hebrew. For those familiar with the basics of Hebrew syntax, Tucker's volume is especially useful. Thankfully, Tucker incorporates numerous recent developments in discourse analysis and linguistic approaches to Hebrew literature into the volume, which further helps those seeking to understand the meaning of the Hebrew text. I highly recommend this volume to anyone interested in understanding the message of Jonah.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good size and does the job,
By Gene Brooks (Rocky Mount, NC) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jonah: A Handbook on the Hebrew Text (Baylor Handbook on the Hebrew Bible) (Paperback)
The small size, simple explanations, and parsing are good for an intermediate Hebrew student. We have found parsing errors, though. He quotes Trible, Sasson, and Waltke-O'Connor through the whole thing. It is not a commentary. It is a syntactical and morphological tool.
