The Daily Study Bible Series is a scholarly yet readable approach to the Old Testament. This series is the Hebrew Testament partner to Barclay's New Testament commentaries. This volume by J.G. McCoville on 1 and 2 Chronicles begins with an introductory section which discusses the date and authorship of the books, the literary aspects and the message of the texts. The commentary is an in-depth study and does well to draw out the history and message of these writings.

Taking a look at the setting, form, and content of I and II Chronicles, J. G. McConville describes how these two often neglected books present God's purpose for his people at a crucial time in their history--the period of restoration after the Exile.

Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, the Daily Study Bible provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today.

J. G. McConville is Professor of Old Testament at the University of Gloucestershire in Cheltenham, England. He is the author of numerous books on the Old Testament, including Law and Theology in Deuteronomy, Judgement and Promise: An Introduction to the Book of Jeremiah, and I and II Chronicles in the Daily Study Bible series.
