1 and 2 Kings for Everyone: Old Testament for Everyone

"This series truly is for everyone who wants to grow in their understanding of the Old Testament." Tremper Longman, Professor of Old Testament, Westmont College, and author of Reading the Bible with Heart and Mind "These down-to-earth presentations, often illuminated by contemporary images and illustrations, offer reflections that can richly inform faith and life." Terence E. Fretheim, Professor of Old Testament, Luther Seminary "Goldingay writes for everyone as a master teacher, pastor, and friend. He makes sense of the strangest parts of the Old Testament and refreshes our understanding of the most familiar material." Pamela Scalise, Associate Professor of Old Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary Northwest "Goldingay brings to the task his great learning, his deep passion for faith, his informed imagination, and his attentiveness to contemporary life." Walter Brueggemann, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, Columbia Theological Seminary

Good kings and bad kings, good faith and bad faith - these are the themes of 1 and 2 Kings, from the wise King Solomon to the consequences of his successors' folly. Using personal anecdote, a lively style, and drawing on his considerable theological knowledge, John Goldingay takes us deep into the unfolding story of the Old Testament.
