      Product Description

      '[Polzin's] new book ...will profoundly affect biblical scholarship for at least a generation' - Frank Kermode. 'One of the most enjoyable books on the Bible that I have read...[A] suggestive and rich book, written in a clear and witty style' - Marc Z. Brettler, "The Journal of Religion". 'Nothing short of brilliant. A major contribution to biblical poetics in general as well as an exegesis of lasting importance' - Edward Greenstein. 'Rarely does one encounter such a straightforward and even-handed engagement with modern biblical scholarship as Polzin's, and rarely does one find such judicious interpretations as his...Literary commentary at its best' - Adele Berlin. '[Polzin] puts forth a powerful, meticulously documented reading that makes one think twice about the atomistic conclusions of modern biblical scholarship...Every serious student of the Bible should look at [this]' - Robert Alter.Commentary like its predecessor, "Moses and the Deuteronomist", this book, a reading of 1 Samuel, argues that a persuasive literary history of Deuteronomy through 2 Kings cannot be written without taking into account the literary artfulness and ideological brilliance that pervade this history's pages.
