Following on from Tom Wright’s popular and successful ‘For Everyone’ series of commentary style books for the New Testament, SPCK have commissioned the talented Old Testament theologian, John Goldingay to write a similar series for the Old Testament books. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of the Hebrew Scriptures and language skills, Goldingay uses his own abridged translation that is combined with a section-by-section discussion/commentary to provide the reader with a combination of background information, knowledgeable explanation and interpretation of what the Scriptures are saying by making it both highly readable and very relevant to our lives today. If you have enjoyed Wright’s New Testament series, this too looks likely to be equally as good for pastors, students, enquirers or for those who want to find some focussed variety for their Bible reading disciplines. This book will provide the reader with 2 months in-depth but entertaining reading/study on Old Testament books that will engage the reader at every step and provide a lasting background to these 2 very important books. A worthwhile daily study style read that is also a useful resource to draw on for many future uses.
