This book is No. 8 in a series of monographs designed to provide clergy and laity the best works in Biblical scholarship both in this country and abroad. The volumes in series are planned to further the study of Biblical theology within the Church. Based on historical and literary research, the primary aim of the series is to set out more clearly the nature of Biblical faith as a living phenomenon of vital significance for the contemporary Christian.
