A Historical Theology of the Hebrew Bible

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Reconstructive, rather than constructive in nature, Schmid’s new study brings recent developments in literary and historical criticism into productive conversation with the theologies of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. A remarkable achievement that should be of significant interest to a wide range of scholars in biblical studies.”

Abraham

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Blenkinsopp has furnished us with a creative re-imagining of Abraham and his emergence in biblical tradition. A fascinating and provocative study.”

An Introduction to Israel’s Wisdom Traditions

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“A welcome introduction to an understudied and underappreciated body of biblical literature. McLaughlin provides helpful, concise, and insightful discussions of all of the wisdom books found in the Hebrew Bible and the deutero-canon.”

Memoirs of an Unfinished Tale

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“Whitters provides his readers with an imaginative re-envisioning of the composition of the book of Acts as a highly selective, performative, and episodic sequence of vital lessons drawn from the Lukan understanding of the history of the early church.”

The Samaritans

World Religions

“Pummer has done us all a great service by producing such a well-informed analysis of the identity, history, and religion of the Samaritans.”

The World around the Old Testament

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“For those interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the Scriptures, The World around the Old Testament is an eminently useful and accessible resource. The volume features detailed, well-written, and informative articles on various peoples and places mentioned in the Bible, written by leading authorities in the field. The careful attention devoted to recent archaeological excavations and ancient inscriptions is most welcome.”
