 Rating:  - Don't waste your moneyI purchased this book for a class and it did not take me long to find it replete with misinformation. If errors were just here and there, that would be one thing, but I found a lot of claims that are easily disproved. So one would have to wonder if studying this material would do more damage than good. I give you just one example here so that you know what kind of product you would be buying.

Despite my interest in the topic, I don't think I will read any of it. Normally I would keep a book like this as a shelf resource, but instead, I'll be returning it for cash back. Rating: - A Survery of the Old Testament - Second EditionI have found this book to be estremely informative and ehlpful in my studies. It is obvious that the authors, Andrew E. Hill and John H. Walton, really put a lot of time and effort into this work. The information it contains puts the Old Testament Scriptures into proper perspective and shows it relevance to me as a New Testament believer. I am especially delighted at how the authors present the Old Testament from the vantage point of the geographical setting, incorporating the culture of the time. Consequently, ... Read More
