Numbers: SCM Theological Coomentary

The SCM Theological Commentary series enlists leading theologians to read and interpret Scripture for the twenty-first century, just as the church father, the Reformers, and other orthodox Christians did for their times and places.

The book Numbers is the fourth book in the Bible. It is so named because it contains a record of the numbering of the people of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai and later on the plain of Moab.

This commentary, like each in the series, is designed to serve readers by demonstrating the continuing intellectual and practical viability of theological interpretation of the Bible.
