Reading Deuteronomy: A Literary and Theological Commentary

Reading Deuteronomy: A Literary and Theological Commentary (Reading the Old Testament)

A lost treasure for large segments of the modern world, the book of Deuteronomy powerfully repays contemporary readersâ€™ attention. It represents Scripture pulsing with immediacy, offering gripping discourses that yank readers out of the doldrums and back to Mount Horeb and an encounter with divine Word issuing forth from blazing fire. Godâ€™s presence and Word in Deuteronomy stir deep longing for God and move readers to a place of intimacy with divine otherness, holism, and will for person-centered community. The consistently theological interpretation reveals the centrality of Deuteronomy for faith and powerfully counters critical accusations about violence, intolerance, and polytheism in the book.
