Deuteronomy (Tyndale Commentaries)

Publisher’s Description

Deuteronomy is a book ‘on the boundary’: it addresses the possibilities of the new life ‘beyond the Jordan’ as dependent on Israel’s keeping of the law and acknowledgement of Yahweh’s supremacy. Moses leaves the people with his last will and testament that would ensure their success and well–being in the new land. Ted Woods expounds this book’s all–encompassing vision, and shows how the Israelites were exhorted to make its words the interpreter of their life’s story within the land.

This completely new volume replaces the previous editon of Deuteronomy in the Tyndale Commentary series written by J. A. Thompson.
