He was author of 2 Chronicles in the Word Biblical Commentary series, and, with Tremper Longman III, An Introduction to the Old Testament.
A helpful read in viewing well-known Bible history lessons from a
fresh perspective. Vivid language and colorful illustrations were
freely interwoven in this popular commentary. . . . Overall, this
small volume has much to commend it. It is a pleasant yet
thought-provoking read. . . . All in all I commend this book. . .
.--MARK G. ZARLING WISCONSIN LUTHERAN QUARTERLY (SUMMER 2001)
At last a series on the Old Testament designed to provide reliable
exposition, biblical theology, and a focus on Christ. These books
should be like manna in the desert to pastors, preachers, teachers,
and many individual Christians who struggle to come to terms with
how to read the Olsd Testament.--Sinclair Ferguson, Chancellor's
Professor, Reformed Theological Seminary; Teaching Fellow, Ligonier
Ministries
One of the most urgent needs of the church is to grasp how the many
parts of the Bible fit together to make one 'story line' that
culminates in Jesus Christ. . . . This series of books goes a long
way to meeting that need. Written at a thoughtful but popular
level, it deserves wide circulation.--D. A. Carson, Emeritus
Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School;
Editor, Pillar New Testament Commentary series
The Old Testament stories of Elijah and Elisha are as fascinating
as they are puzzling, and Christian readers will be delighted to
find in this book just the help they need.--Moises Silva
