“Brevard Childs has provoked more passionate response than any American Old Testament scholar of his generation. Like Childs' previous books, this one meets with its share of criticism because it is both provocative and interesting. It deserves to be widely read.”
“As much, if not more than any other scholar, Childs knows the issues which historical criticism has pointed out. But his emphasis is on the attitude and doctrines that come from the Hebrew Bible as a whole...He points out a way that is both provocative and challenging.”
