"John Drane's survey textbook provides an engaging general introduction to the persons, events, and cultural context of the Old Testament. Arranged historically, Drane's text takes readers through the books of the Old Testament with numerous special articles spelling out in greater detail both historical and interpretative controversies. Additional coverage centers on the meaning and implications of the covenantal relationship between God and the Jewish people. Revisions to the third edition include: rich, full-color interior design, now in paperback; chapter openers guide readers to the overarching themes; expanded table of contents accommodates use as textbook; new glossary"--Publisher description.
