Reviews
"McKane does not explain why he chose to comment on such a difficult book. It is an intriguing study nonetheless...the commentary will prove a treasure trove for fellow scholars who are seeking a comprehensive account of the proposals for the elucidation of any particular passage...The extensive quotation of the Targum and the medieval commentators awakens curiosity, not so much about their witness to the original text and its meaning as to the contexts in which they received and read it." -Journal of Semitic Studies, Spring 2001, "This outstanding commentary will be a necessary tool for any future research on the book of Micah, and confirms McKane's already considerable standing as a foremost interpreter of Israel's prophetic literature."-Dr Anthony Phillips, Church Times"The depth, thoroughness and scholarship of this work will ensure that it will be for a long time a landmark in Micah studies. All future work on the book will be indebted to it and by it all will be judged."-Rex Mason, Journal of Theological Studies"..what McKane gives us is supremely that which others most neglect and which yet should be everybody's starting point - the sense of gratitude is overwhelming."-H. G. M Williamson, Christ Church, Oxford, Journal of Jewish Studies"Knowledge of Hebrew is an essential pre-requisite for the appreciation of this book, but for those with that qualification, there are riches here, not least in McKane's unrivalled knowledge of earlier, particularly Jewish, interpreters."-Richard Coggins, Lymington, Theological Book Review, "McKane does not explain why he chose to comment on such a difficult book. It is an intriguing study nonetheless…the commentary will prove a treasure trove for fellow scholars who are seeking a comprehensive account of the proposals for the elucidation of any particular passage…The extensive quotation of the Targum and the medieval commentators awakens curiosity, not so much about their witness to the original text and its meaning as to the contexts in which they received and read it." -Journal of Semitic Studies, Spring 2001

Synopsis
A comprehensive new translation and commentary by one of today's most widely acclaimed scholars in the field.Professor McKane's work, referring closely to the Hebrew text, the Ancient Versions, and the Jewish medieval commentaries, has a strong textual and lexicographical interest. McKane contends that the Book of Micah represents considerably more than the work of the eighth-century prophet, being developed and supplemented as it discharged a function in the public lament which followed the fall of Jerusalem and in the later prophecies of hope towards the end of the exile.A significant new work for study and reference.

    As described, packing was good - Shipping was followed up on immediately when tracking failed. It was a book I wanted as a gift and I paid for a first edition . Only suggestion to seller is to wrap in waterproof packaging since the post office doesn’t care like ups about dropping packages in the rain - mine was fine but just a thought. Overall fantastic experience. Would purchase again!!! Great support and follow up!
