The Pentateuch
The
Oxford Bible Commentary is a Bible study and reference work for 21st
century students and readers that can be read with any modern
translation of the Bible. It offers verse-by-verse explanation of every
book of the Bible by the world's leading biblical scholars. From its
inception, OBC has been designed as a completely non-denominational
commentary, carefully written and edited to provide the best scholarship
in a readable style for readers from all different faith backgrounds.
It uses the traditional historical-critical method to search for the
original meaning of the texts, but also brings in new perspectives and
insights - literary, sociological, and cultural - to bring out the
expanding meanings of these ancient writings and stimulate new
discussion and further enquiry.
Newly issued in a series of part volumes, the OBC is now available in an affordable and portable format for the study of specific sections of the Bible. The Pentateuch, or Torah ('the law'), comprises the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, Genesis to Deuteronomy. The Commentaries are preceeded by introductions to the Old Testament and to the Pentateuch as a whole.
