Description
The Book of Amos by M. Daniel Carroll R. This commentary offers a close reading of the canonical form of the book of Amos, set against the backdrop of the eighth century BCE. The author combines a detailed analysis of the Hebrew text with attention to its historical background and current relevance. A unique approach is taken here, focusing on Amos's literary features to reveal the book's theology and composition. Rather than reconstructing a hypothetical redactional history, this commentary provides a nuanced understanding of the book's canonical form. With 640 pages, this hardcover volume is an in-depth resource for those seeking to understand the book of Amos.
