Baldwin's book is a concise christian oriented commentary., April 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: 1 and 2 Samuel: An Introduction and Commentary (Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries) (Paperback)
Baldwin's book is a concise christian oriented commentary on the Book of Samuel. Baldwin's book is for the reader who wants a quick reference to better understand the Book of Samuel 1 & 2. However, the academic may become a little perturb when reading the book because Baldwin on occasion proselytizes. Baldwin undoubtedly has a firm understanding of not only the Book of Samuel, but also the bible in general. I would recommend the book to anyone who is attempting to quickly understand some of subtleties contained in the Book of Samuel, however, I am sure there are more thorough commentaries published for the more serious of mind.
