Reviews
"Herman Gunkel and the form critics have taught us that the meaning of texts cannot be divorced from the literary genres and forms in which they are composed. More recently the symbiotic connections between meaning and literature on a more macro-structural level have come to be appreciated. David Dorsey has now carried this important insight logically forward in his brilliant analyses and syntheses of not only Old Testament passages but of whole books and collections of books. With intuitively artistic sensitivity to texts in their wholeness, Dorsey has provided for the scholar and layman alike a fresh way of reading the sacred literature. He avoids the twin pitfalls of not seeing the forest for the trees or failing to discover the trees because of a focus on the forest alone. The trees are here all clearly exposed but not in isolation--they exist in such patterns and relationships as to produce a forest of wondrous beauty. Bible study will never be the same again for anyone who takes advantage of the creative insights afforded in this remarkable volume."--Eugene H. Merrill, Distinguished Professor of OT Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary "Understanding structure is pivotal to understanding the meaning of Scripture. David Dorsey ably guides us toward a better sense of the structure and style of the books of the Old Testament. This book will become a standard reference tool for all serious students of the Bible."--Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of Religious Studies, Westmont College "This is an unusual and fascinating book. It is the first comprehensive treatment of the native structure of the Old Testament books and its significance for their meaning and message. Expositors will find it of inestimable value for looking at the books in a way that is natural to the literary nature of the Old Testament itself and, at the same time, the theological significance of that structure."--Dr. Richard Averbeck, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

Synopsis
Dorsey proceeds book-by-book through the entire Old Testament, identifying the structure and offering commentary as to how it clarifies the text's meaning. He illuminates the "big picture" of each book, providing a framework for further study."This book will become a standard reference tool for all serious students of the Bible."--Temper Longman III, Westmont College, Understanding of the structure of the Old Testament sheds light on its meaning. No one should embark upon the study of an Old Testament text without consulting this indispensable guide.

    Item was exactly as described and shown in pictures. I am so beyond impressed with how quickly seller got my item in the mail and shipped to me. The item was well packed in bubble wrap, cardboard book box and plastic wrap. I appreciate the seller taking extra care to make sure it arrived in such good condition. Highly recommend.

    Minor damage at shipping, but it was packed really good, with double box (a box within a box). I guess, with a 40 lbs typewriter, that’s unavoidable, unless you ship it with the factory carton. Very responsive with the messages. An excellent seller.
