Buch, Englisch, 1600 Seiten, Print PDF, Format (B × H): 189 mm x 246 mm

The New Oxford Bible Commentary builds upon the success of its predecessor, The Oxford Bible Commentary, in providing a comprehensive one-volume commentary on each book of the Bible including the Apocrypha and non-biblical Jewish and Christian writings from the biblical period. This fresh, up-to-date volume shows how Biblical Studies has changed during the last quarter century with moves towards final form, intertextuality, and emphasis on the reader--to name but a few current trends. The range of texts under discussion has also increased to include much more emphasis on the Dead Sea Scrolls and increased focus on post-biblical Jewish and Christian literature.

The volume includes introductory overviews of key issues in modern biblical interpretation--such as inner-biblical interpretation, the re-writing of biblical narratives in the late Second Temple period, and attention to early Jewish commentary--in-depth commentary on each book, maps, and up-to-date bibliographies. The editors and contributors come from a wide range of academic disciplines and cultural backgrounds and from many countries across the world. Together they provide a fresh and groundbreaking resource within the context of a tried and trusted genre--a single-volume that can be read in print or online as the authoritative Bible commentary for the rest of the twenty-first century.
