Description
S. D. Ellison in Themelios "I am yet to be left disappointed after engaging Arnold's work. I am certainly not always in agreement with him, but he is a fruitful conversation partner. As a result, I am convinced that this new NICOT volume (and its forthcoming companion) will be the new standard for engaging Deuteronomy. . . . Given the fundamental nature of Deuteronomy for all of Scripture, we must be grateful for Arnold and his contribution to Deuteronomic studies with this volume." Interpretation "Arnold's commentary is erudite." Review of Biblical Literature "The volume will be of great interest to all graduate-level students (including seminary but also anyone wanting an up-to-date, expansive work on recent Deuteronomy scholarship), teachers, scholars, as well as the general reader. That is a key highlight of the volume: it is both meticulous in its scholarship, yet also accessible." Calvin Theological Journal "Arnold's commentary of Deuteronomy 1-11 will likely become the standard treatment from a broadly evangelical perspective." "Bill T. Arnold has been working toward this commentary for some time now. Here at last comes the first installment of what is nothing short of a monumental gift to biblical interpreters of all kinds. Arnold has given us the most extensive, careful exposition of the text of Deuteronomy 1-11 we've seen in decades. We are all in his considerable debt, and we will remain there for a very long time to come." --Brent A. Strawn Duke University "This new edition exemplifies all that makes NICOT the leading OT commentary series: sane text-critical analysis; exegetical rigor; a deep, wide, and up-to-date engagement with the scholarly literature; and theological sensitivity and relevance. Having read dozens of commentaries and countless other works on Deuteronomy--with a few publications of my own--I still learned a lot from Arnold. More importantly, my love for the book was reignited as Arnold unpacked God's revelation through the voice of Moses." --Kenneth Turner Toccoa Falls College
