A key Old Testament book
Allan Harman has had a life-time interest in exposition of the biblical text. He is Research Professor at the Presbyterian Theological College in Melbourne, Australia. He has lectured and preached in many countries and served as the senior editor of the Reformed Theological Review, Australia's oldest theological journal until he retired at the end of 2013.
"Outstanding. What I mean by that is that he has been able to do
the work of a first class exegete, yet make it understandable to a
wide audience. As I train my theological students in the prophets
of the Bible I will send them to this book immediately."
*John D. Currid, Carl McMurray Professor of Old Testament, Reformed
Theological Seminary (Chancellor’s Professor of Old Testament,
Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi)*
'This is quite a remarkable commentary in the Focus on the Bible
series. Within the space of 416 pages we have a very clear
introduction to and exposition of the large Book of Isaiah. The
exposition reads simply and has a freshness about it that is very
pleasing. Highly recommended.'
*RSW, The Presbyterian Banner*
'With Allan Harman's 'Isaiah' before me, I know what the saying
means that 'even a cat can look at the queen'! His work has made me
wish wholeheartedly that I could start all over again. The detailed
interpretative work is superb, and Harman's defence of the unity of
Isaiah is robust (to say the least), and, in my view, unanswerable.
I thrill to a commentator whose prime aim is to understand and
explain the Hebrew Text, not just to distil the opinions of others.
Thank God for this book - and its author.'
*Alec Motyer ((1924–2016) Well known Bible expositor and commentary
writer)*
"Allan Harman's exegetical judgement is very reliable and he faces
difficulties in the text frankly, discussing them helpfully."
*Geoffrey Grogan, author of Isaiah in ‘The Expositor’s Bible
Commentary’ series ( (1925-2011), Principal of Glasgow Bible
College and well-respected author)*
