Pages are generally bright and clean, with the text, notes, index and map remaining highly presentable. Description A handsome volume from the highly regarded Century Bible series, presenting the Books of Deuteronomy and Joshua with scholarly introductions, the Revised Version text, extensive explanatory notes, an index and map. Edited by the eminent biblical scholar Samuel Rolles Driver (1846-1914), Regius Professor of Hebrew at the University of Oxford and one of the most influential Old Testament scholars of his generation, this work represents a significant contribution to the development of modern biblical scholarship. The Century Bible series sought to make contemporary biblical scholarship accessible to clergy, students and lay readers alike, combining rigorous academic research with practical usefulness. Driver's treatment of Deuteronomy and Joshua reflects the critical and historical scholarship that transformed biblical studies during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His work helped shape modern understanding of the composition, historical background and theological significance of the Hebrew Scriptures and remains of enduring interest to scholars and collectors alike. This volume benefits from distinguished ecclesiastical provenance, having formed part of the personal library of Reverend Dr David Monkton (1932-2025), whose ownership inscription and Ex Libris bookplate are present. Dr Monkton devoted more than half a century to Christian ministry and theological scholarship, serving as a Methodist minister and later as a Supernumerary Presbyter within the Nottingham and Derby Methodist District. He was also active as a police chaplain and contributed to public discussion of faith through published articles and commentary. The book therefore comes from the collection of a lifelong clergyman, preacher and scholar whose vocation was dedicated to the study, interpretation and communication of Scripture. Such provenance is particularly fitting for a substantial biblical commentary and provides a tangible connection to a lifetime of theological study and ministry. The presence of Dr Monkton's ownership inscription and bookplate significantly enhances the historical interest and appeal of the volume. An attractive and increasingly desirable example of early twentieth-century biblical scholarship and a worthy addition to collections of theology, biblical studies, church history, Hebrew studies and ecclesiastical provenance. Provenance From the library of Reverend Dr David Monkton (1932-2025), Methodist minister, theologian, police chaplain and Supernumerary Presbyter, with ownership inscription and Ex Libris bookplate.
