In this Tyndale Old Testament Commentary, V. Philips Long explores the meaning of the biblical history of Israel's vital transition from a confederation of tribes to nationhood under a king. He shows how attending to the books of Samuel repays its readers richly in terms of literary appreciation, historical knowledge, and theological grounding. The Tyndale Commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and what it means. The <em>Introduction</em> to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its authorship, date, original setting, and purpose. Following a structural <em>Analysis</em>, the <em>Commentary</em> takes the book section by section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on individual verses and problems of interpretation. <em>Additional Notes</em> provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new Old Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text is structured under three headings: <em>Context</em>, <em>Comment</em>, and <em>Meaning</em>. The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its message plain.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The Tyndale volumes have long been the premier shorter-length commentary series on both Testaments throughout the English-speaking world."--Craig Blomberg, Denver Seminary<br><br>"There simply is no series of medium-length commentaries that approaches the excellence of the Tyndale commentaries."--Donald A. Hagner, Fuller Theological Seminary<br><br>"Tyndale commentaries are always useful, not least because they focus so clearly on the text of Scripture, and do not fall into the trap of paying too much attention to other commentaries and not enough to the scriptural text they are intended to expound and explain. So they retain their usefulness for preachers, Bible study leaders and for all readers of the Bible."--Peter Adam, principal, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia<br><br>"Within its constraints, this series includes some outstanding volumes."--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School<br>
