W. Edward Glenny. Amos
Ed Glenny is well qualified for the task of writing a commentary on the Septuagint of Amos, for he has already written commentaries on the Septuagint of Hosea (2014), Micah (2015), and has written a monograph on Amos, Finding Meaning in the Text: Translation Technique and Theology in the Septuagint of Amos (VTSup 126, 2009).The introduction to this work includes short essays on the placement of Amos in the Twelve, the date when the book of Amos w…
John Goldingay. The Book of Jeremiah
The commentary begins with a seven page bibliography followed by a sixty-four page introduction. The introduction starts with an inadequate two page historical survey of the last few kings of Judah. The composition of the message in this book was compiled as one unified work during three horizons: Jeremiah’s first-person speeches (in the form of both narratives and poetry) after 626 BC, Jeremiah’s later dictation of his messages in 604 BC to Baru…

The Book of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah
After a fourteen-page bibliography, the introductory section of this NICOT volume deals with the placement of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah in the Book of the Twelve. Renz recognizes that there are some connections between some of the Minor Prophetic books but prefers to view these books individually because each has a coherent rationale behind the arrangement of its distinctive message. These messages have links backward to the Torah and forwar…
The First Great Powers
Cotterell notes in the preface the need for a current history of Babylon and Assyria, so he set out to fill this gap by surveying the key political figures and events that appear in the literature each kingdom produced. His first three chapters (89 pages) cover: (1) “Sumer and Akkad” to lay the foundations of Mesopotamian culture by briefly commenting on the introduction of writing, which enabled them to record laws, establish kingship and treati…
Ezra–Nehemiah
Becking begins with an extensive 11-page bibliography, and then in the introduction he accepts the view that the Chronicler did not write Ezra–Nehemiah, considers parts of Ezra pseudepigraphic writings, rejects the idea of an Ezra Memoir (but not a Nehemiah Memoir), and does not treat Ezra–Nehemiah as one book. Becking accepts Schwiederski’s analysis that the seven Persian documents quoted in Aramaic are not copies of official Persian documents b…
