The book of Kings is a unique source for understanding the history
of Israel from the last days of the united kingdom under David to
the eventual fall of the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. Presenting
Israel's national history from a divine viewpoint, these narratives
measure the kings of Israel and Judah not by the mark they leave on
secular history, but by their "doing what is right in the Lord's
sight." Embedded in this story are enduring lessons of the ways of
God with his people in every age. In this commentary Donald Wiseman
brings to this portion of Scripture his lifelong study of the
archaeology, history, languages and documents of the ancient Near
East. No other commentary on Kings offers as much historical
background and well-considered judgment in such concise and
accessible form. The original, unrevised text of this volume has
been completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive
format with the new cover design for the series.
Classic scholarship brought up to date. An A - Z of Bible terms,
place names, books, people and doctrine. Written by an
international team of over 150 scholars, reflecting recent advances
in research and scholarship. Maps, family trees, line drawings,
diagrams and charts clarify and expand the text. An index gives
ease of access to all significant data. The New Bible Dictionary
has stood the test of time. It has long been recognized as an
essential reference work, and it has been revised and improved for
the Bible students of today. This Third Edition updates key
articles, time charts and all bibliographies - revisions that
reflect recent developmemnts in biblical studies. A vital tool
freshly sharpened for contemporary use.
