Book Synopsis
The Chronicler wrote as a pastoral theologian. The congregation he addressed was an Israel separated from its former days of blessing by a season of judgment. Along with a passage-by-passage interpretation of the text, Martin Selman offers a complete introduction which surveys the Chronicler's method and summarizes key theological themes.
From the Back Cover
The Chronicler expounds the Bible as he knows it, skillfully weaving his commentary into the linear text of Israelis history. His theme is straightforward-the promises of God revealed in the Davidic covenant are as trustworthy and as effective as the God who first uttered them.Review Quotes
"The Tyndale volumes have long been the premier shorter-length commentary series on both Testaments throughout the English-speaking world."
"There simply is no series of medium-length commentaries that approaches the excellence of the Tyndale commentaries."
"Tyndale commentaries are always useful, not least because they focus so clearly on the text of Scripture, and do not fall into the trap of paying too much attention to other commentaries and not enough to the scriptural text they are intended to expound and explain. So they retain their usefulness for preachers, Bible study leaders and for all readers of the Bible."
"Within its constraints, this series includes some outstanding volumes."
