Numbers

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Rolf Knierim and George Coats recognize that Numbers is a 'literary composite' reflecting 'the convictions of the many generations' responsible for it. Aware of these many generations and the 'seemingly incoherent organization of the work,' they nevertheless pay full attention to the shape and meaning of the present biblical text, the 'final outcome' of the long growth process of Numbers. Much will be learned from this commentary.”
