Product Description

▼▲

Helpfully structured with overview and review sections, Joshua to Chronicles surveys the rich literature of what are frequently called the historical books of the Old Testament: Joshua, Judges, Ruth, Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles. Campbell argues that while these books may appear historical, they are more theological - better understood as Israel's efforts to interpret their people's experience. Issues for review conclude each chapter.
