Micah (The Anchor Yale Bible Commentaries)
Francis I. Andersen, David Noel Freedman

Yale University Press, 2006

One of the twelve minor prophets, Micah unwaveringly spoke God?s message to Israel?a message filled with judgment but also laced with the promise of redemption. Micah combined poetic complexity and literary sophistication to compel his audience to respond. And now, through an exacting linguistic and literary analysis of the biblical text, coauthors Francis I. Andersen and David Noel Freedman explain what Micah meant to his contemporaries, as ...

Amos (Anchor Bible Series)

Francis I. Anderson, William Foxwell Albright

Anchor Bible, 1989

An Oustanding Contribution. . .
. . .to the Anchor Bible series and to serious study of Amos. I have been more than impressed with the Anchor Bible commentaries on the Minor Prophets and have included several, including this one, in a current class I'm teaching in the Minor Prophets. Of all these texts, Amos stands out as a masterpiece of modern, sensible Biblical scholarship. Nowhere else have I seen such attention to ...

What Are the Dead Sea Scrolls and Why Do They Matter?

5 reviews
David Noel Freedman, Pam Fox Kuhlken

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2007

Very Teachable material
Freedman and Kuhlken present a very teachable primer on the Dead Sea Scrolls. I have purchased half a dozen books on the Scrolls in preparation for an upcoming class I am teaching, and found this book to be unique in 1 way: it anticipates common questions regarding the Scrolls, and provides sound, concise answers. While not the most detail-oriented of the books I purchased, it still contains ...

Hosea: A new translation (Anchor Bible, Vol. 24)

2 reviews

Doubleday, 1980

Thorough Work on Hosea
These two prominet OT scholars colloborate on this significant prophet. As Jesus and Peter quote from this book prominently in the NT, this book is key. (Hosea 2,6; 1 Pt. 2) They provide a very accurate and detailed philogical work which will likely be too much for even the most adamant layperson. The work really requires a working knowledge of the Hebrew to appreciate its depth of research ...

The Nine Commandments: Uncovering the Hidden Pattern of Crime and Punishment in the Hebrew Bible

7 reviews
David Noel Freedman, Jeffrey C. Geoghegan, ...

Anchor Bible, 2000

The Master Weaver and the countdown to oblivion
A theory so plausible and eloquently argued that you want to give yourself a V-8 forehead slap. Freedman looks at the Ten Commandments (yes, he addresses ALL ten of them) in relationship to the Primary History in the Bible (the nine books from Genesis through Kings, minus Ruth). Along the way he disburses some very interesting information that will enhance Bible readers' future experience with ...

Kinship by Covenant: A Canonical Approach to the Fulfillment of God's Saving Promises (The Anchor Yale Bible ...
Scott W. Hahn

Yale University Press, 2009

While the canonical scriptures were produced over many centuries and represent a diverse library of texts, they are unified by stories of divine covenants and their implications for God?s people. In this deeply researched and thoughtful book, Scott Hahn shows how covenant, as an overarching theme, makes possible a coherent reading of the diverse traditions found within the canonical scriptures. Biblical covenants, though varied in form and ...

Leningrad Codex: A Facsimile Edition

7 reviews

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1998

Words of old...
The Leningrad Codex (so named because it was housed in a museum in Leningrad, when it was Leningrad) is the oldest complete codex of the Hebrew Bible -- a codex being a book form, as opposed to scrolls; the other existing ancient codex, the Aleppo Codex, has a few sections missing; it may be older, but the incomplete nature (especially as it is missing part of the Torah) make its use limited. ...
