Description

The stories of Samuel, Saul and David are among the most memorable in the Old Testament. Yet their lives are bound up in the larger story of God's purpose for his people. This commentary provides an excellent introduction to the critical issues surrounding 1 and 2 Samuel, including authorship, date, composition and structure. It also offers a thoughtful discussion of the theological themes that run throughout these books. With its new large paperback format and global branding, this book is now more accessible than ever. Suitable for those seeking to understand the biblical history of Israel's transition from a confederation of tribes to nationhood under a king, this commentary is an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore the meaning behind 1 and 2 Samuel.
