Editorial Reviews

Review

'A masterly performance on a supremely important subject. The three volumes can hardly fail to become the standard history of the Bible.' Christianity Today

'Its authors are careful to avoid the winds of doctrine which would soon date it … It is a work which will serve the living for many years.' Christian Century

'A landmark … easily accessible to the general reader as well as the scholar.' Religion in Life

'The display of erudition takes one's breath away. Once you have the volume in hand, though, you will have difficulty putting it down.' America

'A unique and brilliantly edited three-volume work …' Wilbur M. Smith, The Moody Bible Institute

'This splendid scholarly history of the Bible is the most complete and accurate work written … a 'must' for every Bible student, minister, and teacher.' Southwestern Journal of Theology

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent textbook!

I'm not going to get into great academic detail on this volume of the 3-volume Cambridge History of the Bible but suffice to say the set is arguably the best academic resource currently available on the topic. Extremely detailed but easily understood (kind of a rarity in academic textbooks). This is a must-have for Christian scholars as well as Christian laity alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent Scholarship / Essential Subject / Great Read!
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2007
Believer or non-believer, if one aspires to a knowledge of any of the humanities, or even, the development of the sciences, in the West, but also to a significant degree in the East, what could be more de riguer than to know a bit about the massive history of the Bible? Without question, from the standpoint of our contemporary world, the Bible is, by far, the most influential cultural statement. Knowledge, not only of its contents, but of their transmission, is indispensible to knowledge of our selves. We could say that Biblical literacy is pre-requisite to cultural literacy - and cultural literacy is pre-requisite to self-knowledge in any verifiable sense.
This landmark study, handsomely produced by Cambridge University Press, which may, on initial inspection, appear to be a daunting read, consisting of three encyclopediac and rather imposing tomes, turns out to be surprisingly accessible. In fact, once one starts reading (a journey here really does begin with the first step), it's tough to put down! These books are filled with the most curious revelations and all sorts of arcane facts. Moreover, knowing this history may change the way one looks at the world. For instance, I was always under the impression that Luther was the first to translate the Gospels into the vernacular German, and that this innovation was one of the primary causes of the success of the Reformation. Right? Wrong. The Vulgate was translated as early as the 7th century by the Goths. A Goth named Ulfilas taught Christianity in as early as the 4th century and a Goth Bible was produced on purple parchment (I suppose these were the original purple pages) penned in gold and silver ink. I'm sure their contemporary descendents would much approve. Renaissance scholars believe this Bible, the Codex Argenteus, was extant at least as early as 795 A.D. Further, there were a number of Bibles floating around Germany and the Lowlands when Luther produced his. Nor did Luther do it alone. He had help from two other guys who knew more Latin than he did. But, his introduction, the widespread literature he had created leading up to its publication, and, ironically, the fact that he had Fredrick's printing presses cranking out copy by the minute, were the great compensating factors in making his translation the earth shaking bestseller that it became. Kudos to Team Luther, eh?
