Esther: A Commentary (Old Testament Library)

"Esther (1997) (Old Testament Library)" by Jon D. Levenson, published by Westminster John Knox Press. 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. In this volume, now available in a new casebound edition, 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. Book details: 162 pages, published 1997. Order now on BookShops.in with fast, reliable delivery across India.
