Title: Interpreting the Old Testament
First published: 1964
Description: A considerable number of introductory studies of the Old Testament are currently available in English. The present book is not designed to replace any one of them, nor is it designed to cover in the same way the ground that they have covered. I have attempted to provide the most necessary information and interpretive materials for those who read the Old Testament writings for themselves critically and seriously. In form, the book is somewhat analogous to an Old Testament commentary. Little specific attention has been given to the discussion of textual matters or to detailed literary criticism. Attention is focused upon the interpretation of the literature as it stands in the Hebrew Old Testament. - Preface.
