Cambridge Bible Commentary on the New English Bible, The : The First and Second Books of the Chronicles

---

Outline: The Chronicles, divided into two books purely for convenience, have long suffered from neglect; this is partly because much of their content can be found elsewhere in the Old Testament and partly because their presentation, emphasizing genealogies and ritual ceremonies, has lacked appeal for modern man over the last few hundred years. Yet these books, with their theological interpretation of historical events, are a valuable source of illumination about the Judean community living under Persian rules about 350 B.C. and its special relationship with Jerusalem and its temple and with God. In his introductory section, the author discusses the probabele origins and the nature and purpose of 'the Chronicler's' work (whether that of a single writer or a group) and then examines each book separately. In the established style of the series the N.E.B translation of the text then follows, divided into brief sections and alternating with passages of commentary. The results of recent Old Testament scholarship and modern theological thought are conveyed in a simple language to the students and layman.
