Guide to Old Testament Commentaries

Leading Old Testament scholar Tremper Longman III provides students and pastors with expert guidance on choosing a commentary for any book of the Old Testament.

The fifth edition has been updated to assess the most recently published commentaries, providing evaluative comments.

Longman lists a number of works available for each book of the Old Testament, gives a brief indication of their emphases and viewpoints, and evaluates them.

The result is a balanced, sensible guide for those who preach and teach the Old Testament and need help in choosing the best tools.
