Sinai and Zion : An Entry into the Jewish Bible

Rating:
Summary: Readable reliable account of the Old Testament covenants
Review: Levenson discusses the history and meaning of the covenants Yahweh makes with Abraham, David and Moses and the people of Isreal. This book is widely used in seminaries and religion departments but would be of interest to anyone exploring the Christian Bible or the Hebrew Scriptures at any level. Levenson addresses the major lines of scholarly inhterpretation but in a way that most readers will find available

Summary: Jon Levenson is Awesome
Review: This book is one of the most definitive books of its kind. Dr. Levenson does a simply wonderful job of translating the hebrew scripture. In my mind he is truely deserving of the title he makes his children call him.....his eminence.
