1 Chronicles
- In stock
This commentary takes full advantage of recent advances in the textual history of Samuel and Kings, demonstrating in many cases that the differences often ascribed to the Chronicler came in fact from the divergent copy of the canonical books he was rewriting. Klein brings to lively expression the unique theological voice of the Chronicler and demonstrates there have been far fewer secondary additions to the text than is normally assumed.
"A lifetime studying Chronicles comes to its full
fruition in this comprehensive commentary on
a biblical book that is often overlooked. Klein's
deep penetration into the text and meaning
of Chronicles is unexcelled in the English
language and provides the reader of the book
all that he or she needs to understand and
expound the meaning of the text. It will be the
standard against which other commentaries
on Chronicles are measured for years to come."
Patrick D. Miller, Princeton Theological Seminary
"Here, finally, is the first of two commentary
volumes encompassing meticulous and lucid
interpretations of everything there is to be
pondered at in that eminently theological
composition of the postexilic period. Text,
ancient manuscripts and versions, English
translation, literary growth, forms, history, near
eastern geography and ethnology, geo-politics,
archaeological evidence, theological concepts
the author pays scrupulous attention to every bit
of significant testimony ... produces priceless
insights for everyone interested in Hebrew
Scriptures and Biblical theology."
