The 'Dictionary of the Old Testament: Historical Books' is the second volume in IVP's Old Testament dictionary series.
This volume picks up where the 'Dictionary of the Old Testament: Pentateuch' left off - with Joshua and Israel poised to enter the land - and carries us through the postexilic period. Following in the tradition of the four award-winning IVP dictionaries focused on the New Testament, this encyclopedic work is characterized by in-depth articles focused on key topics, many of them written by noted experts.
The history of Israel forms the skeletal structure of the Old Testament. Understanding this history and the biblical books that trace it is essential to comprehending the Bible. The 'Dictionary of the Old Testament: Historical Books' is the only reference book focused exclusively on these biblical books and the history of Israel.
Bill T. Arnold is Director of Hebrew Studies and Professor of Old Testament and Semitic Languages at Asbury Theological Seminary. He is author of several books, including 1 and 2 Samuel, Encountering the Book of Genesis and (with John H. Choi) A Guide to Biblical Hebrew Syntax. He coedited The Face of Old Testament Studies.
Hugh G. M. Williamson is Regius Professor of Hebrew at Oxford University and on the faculty of The Oriental Institute. He is the author of several books and numerous articles on the Old Testament, including commentaries on 1 and 2 Chronicles and Ezra-Nehemiah, as well as The Book Called Isaiah and Studies in Persian Period History and Historiography.
