Reseña del editor

Israel's ability to recover and reread its religious traditions helped shape the Hebrew Scriptures into their present canonical form over the course of a millennium. This introductory survey encourages readers to respond openly and candidly to these texts.

Reseña del editor

The Old Testament did not appear overnight in its present English translations. It developed into its present canonical form over close to a millennium (and has been translated for another two millennia since) and the reader who is sensitive to that development will be a better interpreter of its diverse texts. Michael Dick leads the student-reader on a path of discovery, providing insightful questions and powerful explanations necessary for the effective exploration of this marvelous work. It is the author's intention to help students understand the Old Testament as a piece of literature (and not helping them to use it in any devotional way). In order to do this he uses examples from ancient literature to shed light on certain texts.
