Customer Reviews

Wish it was in both Hebrew and English

I wish this was in both English and Hebrew as I am learning the language and would have been a huge help. On my spiritual journey I find that small differences in translation actually are a big deal and can change the entire meaning of a verse compared to the Christian OT. I recommend this holy book. Even if you are not a believer, all knowledge is worth having.

Great Condition

This item came in, in a very timely manner and was in great condition. Thanks!

OUTSTANDING TEXTUAL AND THEMATIC OVERVIEW

Dr. Smith has a wonderful overview of the Pentateuch. It has the right blend of practical application for the reader without sacrificing in-depth exegesis and theology for the serious Bible student.
