'I just read David Gunn's Judges in
proof and sent off a
strong
endorsement to Blackwells. This series is very exciting. It actually
renews my enthusiasm for the
genre
of biblical commentary! These volumes, if they all knock down,
as
does
David's, the barriers between professional and popular, text and
visual/material, will be of major importance in the development
of
Biblical studies as a critical discipline. I certainly will find
myself using
these
volumes.'

'This is a very fine series indeed, and what has appeared thus
far is
far more useful to me than most other commentaries. This is the
kind
of
book that will not just be "best before the next commentary
is
published" (i.e., normally one or two years later).'
