As far as text books go, this is very readable and informative. Photographs and charts give you the opportunity to get a better picture of what the text attempts to convey.
"Good information, some a little over my head!"

I am a lay person and was looking for more information about the OT. My brother, an ordained Methodist minister, recommended this to me. It has good information and is laid out well, but some of the theology is over my head. I am using it more for reference as I read and would buy it again.

This is an excellent partner to any study of the Old Testament. It is extremely informative in regards to historical context and theological themes of each book. I highly recommend it.

This book shows a fair non-denominational veiw of the Old Testament. This is a must for anyone who really wants to study the Bible.
"Old Testament Literature resource"

I ordered this book to use as a reference for a course. I have found many references made to this book in other places, so it has been a good addition to my personal library.
This book gives a great overall perspective to the Old Testament.
"Understanding the Context"

After the founding pastor of my church returned to seminary to pursue his doctoral studies, he recommended this book to better understand the theological foundation of Christianity. He wisely suggested to first read the background in chapters 44-49, followed by chapters 1-15 to get the big picture on Torah and history. Then comes the survey of The Prophets in chapters 16-30, the glorious encounter with The Writings in chapters 31-43 and finally, archeology (chapter50) and messianic prophecy (chapter 51).
Over the course of nearly a year, I read this book alongside the Old Testament. I experienced what the first Ethiopian Christian must have felt as Philip explained the book of Isaiah to him in Acts 8. These three scholarly authors helped me see things I never knew existed, which positioned the gospel in a new way.
As the hearts of the pilgrims en route to Emmaus burned within them as Jesus opened the same Scriptures to them, I gained a deeper understanding and yearning. The New Testament Letter to the Hebrews now makes much more sense, and I am better able to see how OT prophecy was fulfilled in Jesus. My subsequent visit to the Holy Land was enriched by knowing the geography, history and theology of the Old Testament that I gained from this survey.
