Announcing a new Companion to the Hebrew Bible

I thought that members of the B-HEBREW discussion group may be interested
in the following title from Blackwell Publishing.


The Blackwell Companion to the Hebrew Bible
Edited by Leo G. Perdue

This comprehensive companion offers a broad overview and survey of Old
Testament study. It consists of newly commissioned articles from an
impressive array of top international Old Testament scholars from around
the world. The history, archaeology, theology, sociology and ancient Near
Eastern context of the Hebrew Bible are all given considerable attention,
and by addressing questions of methodology and interpretation, the
Companion also introduces readers to important issues in the academic
study of the Old Testament.
