Numbers: An Introduction and Commentary (Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries | TOTC)
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
The book of Numbers has had something of a renaissance in scholarly engagement in recent years–and this careful and contemporary commentary by Altmann and Peres distils that conversation with sensitivity and rigour.
The joint nature of this commentary by two authors from different contexts helps to illuminate Numbers for the contemporary reader, as it seeks to make God’s word a source of blessing, nourishment and hope for all.
The Tyndale Old Testament Commentary is designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and what it means. The Introduction to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its authorship, date, original setting and purpose.
Following a structural Analysis, the Commentary takes the book section by section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on individual verses and problems of interpretation. Additional Notes provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new Old Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text is structured under three headings: Context, Comment and Theology. The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its message plain.
