The Pentateuch as Narrative
A Biblical-Theological Commentary
John H. Sailhamer - 1995-03-03 (first published in 1992)
Goodreads Rating
Explore the Pentateuch as one continuous narrative with The Pentateuch as Narrative. Rather than dividing the first five books of the Bible into separate documents, author John H. Sailhamer illuminates the literary and narrative continuity of the work as a whole. The book focuses on how original Jewish readers may have viewed and understood the Pentateuch, and proposes that it was written from the perspective of one who had witnessed the failure of the Law of the Covenant. If you're interested in biblical studies or Jewish history, this engaging commentary draws from a wide range of classic and contemporary literature to provide new insights into this important text.
