5.0 out of 5 stars Decent for its purposes
Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2022

This book covers a lot of information. However, the chapter sections are pretty short. This was a required required text for a Pentateuch class. So, maybe for my purposes it was not enough info. Otherwise, this book is well put together. The footnotes are excellent. This book will stay in our personal library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Contains an important summary of the inter-testamental period
Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2013
Verified Purchase
Revised with an eye toward readability without sacrificing data. The book gives careful attention to both biblical and extra-biblical sources to shed light on the world in which the drama of Israel's history was played.

The addition of a new chapter on the time between the testaments was written to fill a major gap in our understanding of New Testament times.

It's a good book for pastors without extensive academic backgrounds, and would make a good first-year college textbook.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book for College Class
Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2010
Verified Purchase
I purchased this book for a Bible class I took. It has some archaeology, and historical items that relate to the Bible, although new findings have been found since this book was published. It touches on the books of the Old Testament, and the time between the testaments, and how those stories agree with historical records and customs of the day. It has some good information, but is not well suited for a study in depth. Also, I don't agree with the statements in the book seeming to not take the Bible to be the literal Word of God. The jumping around between versions was also irritating. If they just used the KJV, they wouldn't have to worry about contradictions. But overall, it was an okay read.
