Isaiah 40–66: A Commentary (Eerdmans Critical Commentary | ECC)
This Eerdmans Critical Commentary volume is
Shalom Paul’s comprehensive, all-inclusive study of the oracles of an
anonymous prophet known only as Second Isaiah who prophesied in the
second half of the sixth century B.C.E. Paul examines Isaiah 40–66
through a close reading of the biblical text, offering thorough exegesis
of the historical, linguistic, literary, and theological aspects of the
prophet’s writings. He also looks carefully at intertextual influences
of earlier biblical and extrabiblical books, draws on the contributions
of medieval Jewish commentators, and supports the contention that Second
Isaiah should include chapters 55–66, thus eliminating the need to
demarcate a Third Isaiah.

Minor Prophets, Part 2 (Forms of the Old Testament Literature Series | FOTL)
In this volume Floyd presents a complete
form-critical analysis of the last six books in the Minor Prophets:
Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. By looking
carefully at the literary genre and internal structure of each book,
Floyd uncovers the literary conventions that help shape the composition
of these prophetic books in their final form. His approach yields fresh
views of how the parts of each book fit together to make up the whole —
particularly with respect to Nahum, Haggai, and Malachi — and provides a
basis for reconsidering how each book is historically related to the
time of the prophet for whom it is named. This work will be useful to
scholars because it advances the discussion regarding the holistic
reading of prophetic books, and useful to pastors and students because
it shows how analysis of literary form can lead to a more profound
understanding of the messages of the Minor Prophets.

Exodus (Eerdmans Critical Commentary | ECC)
In this new commentary on Exodus in the
Eerdmans Critical Commentary, scholar Thomas B. Dozeman examines the
book of Exodus under the rubric of the myriad literary genres that occur
in the book. Dozeman accepts the conclusions of the “literary” of
“higher criticism” movement and thus believes the book was composed over
time throughout Israel's history.

1 Samuel (Forms of the Old Testament Literature Series | FOTL)
Antony Campbell’s valuable form-critical
analysis of 1 Samuel highlights both the literary development of the
text itself and its meanings for its audience. A skilled student of the
Hebrew Scriptures and their ancient context, Campbell shows modern
readers the process of editing and reworking that shaped 1 Samuel’s
final form. As Campbell’s study reveals, the tensions and contradictions
that exist in the present text reflect a massive change in the way of
life of ancient Israel. Samuel, the first prophet, here emerges to
preside over the rise of Saul, Israel’s first king, to be the agent of
Saul’s rejection, and to anoint David as Israel’s next king and the
first established head of a royal dynasty. The book of 1 Samuel captures
the work of God within this interplay of sociopolitical forces, and
Campbell fruitfully explores the text both as a repository of traditions
of great significance for Israel and as a paradigm of Israel’s use of
narrative for theological expression.
