Overview

Complete the Old Testament series of the Word Biblical Commentary with Dr. David Clines' monumental study of Job. Volume 18B is devoted entirely to the response of the Lord from the tempest to Job, together with the replies of Job (Job 38-42), presenting the Lord's own explanation of his manifold purposes in creation and bringing to an unexpected conclusion Job's dramatic quest for justice.

Difficult portions of the Hebrew text are thoroughly handled, but the commentary is written for the non-technical reader and scholar alike. Clines uncovers the driving force of the argument and the drama of the book. The Explanation sections at the end of each chapter brilliantly summarize the views of the speakers and offer thoughtful reflections on their theological value.

The volume concludes with a unique 250-page bibliography of virtually everything that has been written about the Book of Job, including its influence on art, music and literature.

Features include:


  • Complete new translation and verse by verse commentary on the Book of Job, in constant dialogue with other commentators

  • Extensive scholarly notes on the Hebrew text of the book and its many obscure terms

  • Unparalleled bibliography gives sweeping coverage of all aspects of the Book of Job from scholarly books to art, literature, and music

    Job 18B

    The Word Biblical Commentary delivers the best in biblical scholarship, from the leading scholars of our day. Such contributors include Gordon J. Wenham, Peter C. Craigie, John E. Goldingay, Donald A. Hagner, John Nolland, James D. G. Dunn, as well as dozens of others. Each of the now 60 volumes contains a thorough analysis of textual, linguistic, structural, and theological evidence as well as both the Hebrew and Greek helps These widely acclaimed commentaries serve as exceptional resources for the professional theologian and instructor, the seminary or university student, or the working minister and are often required reading in seminary. And now at long last volume 18B is published to be added to your 59 volume set! David J. A. Clines is the author of all 3 volumes on the book of Job and is emeritus professor of biblical studies at the University of Sheffield. He has studied classical languages in Sydney and Semitic Languages in Cambridge, and he now concentrates on Hebrew lexicography and contemporary literary approaches to the Hebrew Bible. His numerous publications include The Theme of the Pentateuch (1978), What Does Eve Do to Help?(1990) and Interested Parties: The Ideology of Writers and Readers of the Old Testament (1995) as well as a major three-volume commentary on Job in the Word Biblical Commentary series (1989¿2009). He is editor of The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew, the sixth volume of which was published in 2007. All three commentaries on the book of Job look like this: vol. 17 covers chapters 1-20 ISBN: 0849902169 vol. 18A covers chapters 21-37 ISBN: 0849902177 vol. 18B covers chapters 38-42 ISBN: 0785252673 This newest volume is strictly focused on the end of Job, God¿s answers. It¿s wonderful to have this volume now (2011) considering the previous volume was written five years ago (2006). Even though you¿d probably only expect to find these books in a pastor¿s library, the language is easy to read and simple enough for a non-technical reader. Clines does a wonderful job unlocking the major themes of Job and the notes, scholarship and commentary he gives to each chapter brilliantly bring together the various voices we have grown so familiar with over the years of reading this book. With the addition of this volume to the other 2 books on Job, 18B contains a 250 page bibliography of virtually everything that has been written about Job until now. With Job being an often misunderstood, or confusing book, Clines does a wonderful job unlocking these scriptures and bringing it all to life.
