The Original Story: God, Israel, and the World
This is the most insiteful and well balanced introduction to the Old Testament to this date. It is a student/teacher friendly work on how to read the Old Testament with a good mix of historical, theological, socialogical, and exegetical teachings. It will well prepare a student of any religious and cultural orientation for further study of the Old Testament. I will be using this book in my Old Testament survey course.
Excellent introduction to the Old Testament
This is an excellent book for those beginning their studies in the Old Testament. It has just the right depth of material to provide a good overview while at the same time providing good detail.The Original Story: God, Israel and the World
