For over one hundred years International Critical Commentaries have had a special place among works on the Bible. They bring together all the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, archaeological, historical, literary, and theological - to help the reader understand the meaning of the books of the Old and New Testaments. The new commentaries continue this tradition. All new evidence now available is incorporated and new methods of study are applied. The authors are of the highest international standing. No attempt has been made to secure a uniform theological or critical approach to the biblical text: contributors have been invited for their scholarly distinction, not for their adherence to any one school of thought.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'ICC has been the supreme English language Bible commentary series throughout the twentieth century, and the recent additions to it...maintain its reputation as the commentary of choice, the first volume to be pulled from the shelf when a really tricky issue of exegesis or exposition is involved or an authoritative survey of historical and recent scholarly interpretation is sought on any particular passage.'--Professor James Dunn, University of Durham<br><br>Review in Orientalistische Literaturzeitung, 2009.<br><br>Reviewed in International Review of Biblical Studies, 2007.<br><br>2006 Bible and Bible Refrences<BR>December 2006 Book of the Month<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Hugh Williamson is Regius Professor of Hebrew, University of Oxford, UK.
