The book of Deuteronomy has been immensely influential, not least
within the Old Testament itself. It is found among the most
frequently occurring manuscripts at Qumran, and it is also one of
the Old Testament books most frequently cited in the New Testament.
In Matthew's Gospel, it is Deuteronomy which Jesus cites in
rejecting temptation. As with so many other Old Testament books,
study of Deuteronomy is in the midst of significant change. While
for many scholars the Documentary Hypothesis has continued to
provide a framework for interpretation, it no longer commands the
status of an "assured result." Instead, fresh approaches have been
developed, engendering their own debates. Recent as well as older
study affirms that Deuteronomy represents a distinctive theological
voice within the Pentateuch. While many excellent resources are now
available, these tend to be either introductory or highly
specialized; there are fewer that bridge the gap between the two.
This volume contributes to that need: it assumes some foundational
knowledge and guides readers through current issues and approaches.
Here is evangelical scholarship that will inform, stimulate and
reward diligent teachers and preachers of the Old Testament. The
contributors are Paul Barker, Jenny Corcoran, David G. Firth, Greg
Goswell, Christian Hofreiter, Philip S. Johnston, James Robson,
Csilla Saysell, Heath Thomas, Peter T. Vogt and John H. Walton.
