John J. Collins's A Short Introduction to the Hebrew Bible is one
of the most popular introductory textbooks in colleges and seminary
classrooms. Enriched by decades of classroom teaching, it is aimed
explicitly at motivated students, regardless of their previous
exposure to the Bible or faith commitments. This more compact
version of Collins's renowned Introduction to the Hebrew Bible is
combined with even more student-friendly features, including
charts, maps, photographs, chapter summaries, and bibliographies
for further reading. Collins proceeds through the canon of the Old
Testament and the Apocrypha, judiciously presenting the current
state of historical, archaeological, and literary understanding of
the biblical text, and engaging the student in questions of
significance and interpretation for the contemporary world. The
third edition is presented in a new and engaging format with new
maps and images. An index has been added to the volume for the
first time.
