9780334000532: The Prophet Amos (Old Testament Library)

Synopsis

This commentary will appeal particularly to those familiar with Professor Soggin's Introduction to the Old Testament and History of Israel who would prefer an alternative to the parallel work by J. L. Mays in the Old Testament Library. Written with the verve that the author brings to his other commentaries on Joshua and Judges, it offers a new translation of the text of Amos accompanied by two types of comment: first comes a critical philological account which justifies the rendering of the text adopted, and then, in a style familiar from the Old Testament Library, the main body of the commentary.
