The book of Esther has been preserved in ancient texts that
diverge greatly from each other; as a result, Jews and Protestants
usually read a version which is shorter than that of most Catholic
or Orthodox Bibles. Jon Levenson capably guides readers through
both versions, demonstrating their coherence and their
differences.
The Old Testament Library provides fresh and authoritative
treatments of important aspects of Old Testament study through
commentaries and general surveys. The contributors are scholars of
international standing.
