Title: Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible by Emmanuel Tov, Emanuel Tov ISBN: 0800634292 Publisher: Fortress Press Pub. Date: July, 2001 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $50.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5
Rating: 5
Summary: Scarcely updated, but still superb
Comment: The reviews of the first edition were glowing, and rightly so because this is a superb book. Tov is a world authority in his subject, and has the ability to explain his complex technical subject with great lucidity. This second edition is, however, almost a page for page reprint of the first edition and has only a few small revisions. This is disappointing, and we look forward to a more thoroughly revised third edition in the next few years. Anyone with a first edition need not bother with this one. However, everyone else with more than a beginner's interest in the subject should buy this book now.
Rating: 5
Summary: The best in its field
Comment: It is a long time since a decent book on Old Testament textual studies appeared. Classics like those by Ginsburg and B J Roberts are largely obsolete and anyway almost impossible to obtain. There are some brief introductions around, but they do not begin to match the depth and erudition of this book. Tov is a brilliant scholar, and one of the World's leading authorities on the Septuagint and the Dead Sea scrolls, so he is well qualified to write this book.
Rating: 5
Summary: A Tremendous Biblical Study Source
Comment: This is the best source for factual information about the Tanakh (Old Testament) on the market. It is an absolute "must" book for every serious student of the Bible. Professor Tov covers the history of the Bible, its copying and transmission, and many of the textual problems. He pays a great deal of attention to the evolution of the Masoretic texts and their differences. Dr.Tov's experience as a professor at Hebrew University and Editor-in-Chief of the Dead Sea Scrolls publication project makes him uniquely qualified to write about the Hebrew Bible. If you want the facts, this is the book for you. This is a featured book at our site - INTERNETBIBLE.COM.
