Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ruth-Esther (Word Biblical Commentary, Vol. 9) (Hardcover)
(These comments apply to the section on Ruth, I have not read the section on Esther). This commentary is absolutely superb, not only for its exegesis and conclusions, but for its method. Bush makes full use of discourse analyses and modern linguistics, along with recent archaeology and the traditional canons of biblical criticism. It is easy to read and well argued . . . fun to read (if you could say such a thing about a technical commentary!). The author also hints at very good theological application for the modern preacher and christian. I wish more NT commentaries would carry this level of linguistic awareness.
