GENESIS (Vol. 2)
EP Study Commentary
By Dr. John D. Currid
Evangelical Press. 432 pages. £16.95
ISBN 0 85234 550 X

It has been said that EP Study Commentaries are 'sufficiently scholarly to give [them] credence in the academic world, but at the same time ... sufficiently straightforward to make [them] accessible to any serious student of the Bible' (quotation from the Banner of Truth).

This commentary on the second half of the book of Genesis (Genesis 25.19-50.26) fits that description well.

Dr. John Currid, the author, is Professor of Old Testament at the Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi, USA. He has a PhD in Archaeology, and he is clearly a Hebrew scholar.
