Much of the Old Testament seems strange to contemporary readers. However, as we begin to understand how ancient people viewed the world, the Old Testament becomes more clearly a book that stands within its ancient context as it also speaks against it. John Walton provides here a thoughtful introduction to the conceptual world of the ancient Near East. By surveying the cultural context of the ancient Near East, Walton brings insight to the interpretation of specific Old Testament passages. His insightful study will help students and pastors feel comfortable in the unfamiliar world of the Hebrew Bible and better able to interpret specific passages. This new edition has been thoroughly updated and revised throughout and is an excellent tool for scholars and students.
