Leviticus - Zondervan Exegetical Commentary On The Old Testament (Hardcover)

Designed for the pastor and Bible teacher, the Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the Old Testament features today's top Old Testament scholars and brings together commentary features rarely gathered in one volume. With careful discourse analysis and interpretation of the Hebrew text, the authors trace the flow of argument in each Old Testament book, showing that how a biblical author says something is just as important as what they say.

Commentary on each passage follows a clear structure to help readers grasp the flow and meaning of the text:
• The Main Idea of the Passage: A one- or two-sentence summary of the key ideas the biblical author seeks to communicate.
• Literary Context: A brief discussion of the relationship of the specific text to the book as a whole and to its place within the broader argument.
• Translation and Exegetical Outline: Commentators provide their own translations of each text, formatted to highlight its discourse structure, and accompanied by a coherent outline that reflects the flow and argument of the text.
• Structure and Literary Form: An overview of the literary structure and rhetorical style adopted by the biblical author, highlighting how these features contribute to the communication of the main idea of the passage.
