NCLA Review: A COMPANION TO THE BIBLE is generally intended to be used as a guide and adjunct while reading Scripture. Eerdmans’ offering in this genre is a hefty but readable volume, focused primarily toward those who are new to, or with only a modest understanding of, the Bible. The heart of this Companion volume is a book-by-book Bible commentary which summarizes the Biblical message and provides some interpretation or explanation of difficult or unusual concepts. It cannot serve as or replace a scholarly commentary, such as THE OXFORD BIBLE COMMENTARY or similar volumes. THE EERDMANS COMPANION TO THE BIBLE also provides a well-selected set of additional information such as Holy Land and Near East geography, authorship and history of Bible formation, languages, plants and animals, and weights and measures of the Bible. There are a Glossary, Who’s Who, Gazetteer of Places, and Scriptural Index. The black-and-white only format makes the volume less visually appealing than color would do, but no doubt improves the affordability. A decent Bible companion for a small or medium-sized church library. Rating: 3 - KLF ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
This top-quality handbook illuminates the Bible's background, contents, and interpretation. Travelers about to visit a foreign country often study a guidebook with information about that country. Especially helpful are clear, easy-to-use maps, background information on the local area, and articles about important sites to visit. Similarly, the Bible confronts many readers today with a kind of "foreign country in writing" whose customs and culture aren't always clear. The Eerdmans Companion to the Bible will greatly help readers navigate unfamiliar biblical terrain and deepen their knowledge of areas already familiar to them. Over two hundred user-friendly maps, charts, graphics, and photos bring ancient places to life. Numerous articles offer significant insights into the Bible's people, places, and main ideas. Travelers who visit specific individual books will find in-depth, illuminating commentary based on up-to-date research. Reflecting a broad evangelical perspective, The Eerdmans Companion to the Bible continues the publisher's proud tradition of providing quality biblical resources for nearly a century. This handy guidebook promises to make the Word of God come alive as never before. - Publisher. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
