Paperback. Zustand: Good. This new edition includes updated references and added material that reflect recent pentateuchal research as well as the author's refined judgments.Praise for previous editionsIn this up-to-date and scholarly work, Alexander shows how the first five books of the Bible make sense and hang together. More than that, they lay the foundations of Christian theology so that no one can properly understand the rest of the Bible who has not come to terms with them.

Gordon McConville, University of GloucestershireThere is no doubt that theology undergraduates and anybody who takes an interest in the riches of the Pentateuch are indebted to Alexander for providing us with a highly readable, informative, and at times even innovative book.--Michael Widmer, Themelios[A] wealth of useful and accessible information on the Pentateuch. . . . This book is especially welcome as a solid introduction accessible to undergraduate students.--Eric W. Bolger, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society.…
