Review: "This Theological Introduction to the Old Testament helps readers come to a critically informed understanding of the Old Testament as the church's scripture. It introduces the Old Testament both as a witness of ancient Israel and as a witness to the church and synagogue through the generations of those who have passed these texts on as scripture. It is intended primarily for introductory seminary students."--BOOK JACKET.
