Book Of Judges- The

---

Eminently readable- exegetically thorough- and written in an emotionally warm style that flows from his keen sensitivity to the text- Barry Webb's commentary on Judges is just what is needed to properly engage a dynamic- narrative work like the book of Judges. It discusses not only unique features of the stories themselves but also such issues as the violent nature of Judges- how women are portrayed in it- and how it relates to the Christian gospel of the New Testament.Webb concentrates throughout on what the biblical text itself throws into prominence- giving space to background issues only when they cast significant light on the foreground. For those who want more- the footnotes and bibliography provide helpful guidance. The end result is a welcome resource for interpreting one of the most challenging books in the Old Testament."
