John Goldingay is one of the most prolific and creative Old
Testament scholars working today. In this book he draws on the best
of biblical scholarship as well as the Christian tradition to offer
a substantive and useful commentary on Joshua. The commentary is
both critically engaged and sensitive to the theological
contributions of the text. Goldingay treats Joshua as an ancient
Israelite document that speaks to twenty-first-century Christians.
He examines the text section by section--offering a fresh
translation, textual notes, paragraph-level commentary, and
theological reflection--and addresses important issues and problems
that flow from the text and its discussion. This volume, the first
in a new series on the Historical Books, complements other Baker
Commentary on the Old Testament series: Pentateuch, Wisdom and
Psalms, and Prophets. Each series volume is grounded in rigorous
scholarship but is useful for those who preach and teach. The
series editors are David G. Firth (Trinity College, Bristol)
and Lissa M. Wray Beal (Wycliffe College, University of
Toronto).
