The thorough but accessible Approaching the Old Testament offers an informative, interactive, and practical introduction to the Hebrew Bible. After an introduction to the culture and context of the Old Testament, chapters introduce each Old Testament book, covering authorship, audience, and date of writing, an outline of the book's structure, key themes, and several points of current-day application.
Intended for undergraduate and beginning seminary students, Approaching the Old Testament will give readers a better understanding of the world and writing of the Old Testament Scriptures as well as of their content and ongoing relevance today.
