| Summary: | ‘Magnificent’ is not an expression that comes readily to this reviewer, but no other word can be applied to the achievement represented by these two large volumes. Along with the no doubt equally extensive treatment of II Chronicles anticipated, these volumes bid fair to become not only the most comprehensive but also the most authoritative commentary on Chronicles available in English. A brief review cannot begin to do justice to the wealth of material—textual, linguistic, literary, historical, and theological—contained in its pages. |
