Product Description

David G. Firth interprets the book of Joshua with a sensitivity to its place as Christian Scripture. Joshua is marginalized in many churches, often because its message is misunderstood. Firth reveals that, rather than simply being a story of conquest, Joshua is concerned with matters of identity and faithfulness. Joshua exhorts God's people to live out their calling in light of God's promises. While Israelites like Achan fall short, others--often gentiles--show surprising faith in God. Firth also probes the book's theological themes, such as the promised land, government, rest, and promise. The book of Joshua boldly challenges the complacent in faith to be a nation committed to God.

The Evangelical Biblical Theology Commentary (EBTC) series locates each biblical book within redemptive history and illuminates its unique theological contributions. All EBTC volumes feature informed exegetical treatment of the biblical book and thorough discussion of its most important theological themes in relation to the canon--all in a style that is useful and accessible to students of Scripture.

Editorial Reviews

I enthusiastically recommend this commentary because of its sensitive literary reading of the book as well as its insightful theological analysis. Joshua is often ignored or avoided these days by Christians because of its violence, but Firth helps us appreciate its importance to our theology and faith. —Tremper Longman III, Westmont College Accessible. Engaging. Faithful. A great addition to the study of Joshua; I’d recommend it to my seminary students, to pastors, and to interested laypeople. —Lissa M. Wray Beal, Providence Theological Seminary, Otterburne, Canada What is offered in this commentary is a meticulous reading of the text highlighting the literary features as well as paying due attention to historical matters. Equally important is that the commentary also probes the theological significance of each unit. Interested readers of the Bible, theological students, pastors, Old Testament scholars, and theologians will benefit a lot by reading this commentary and acquaint themselves with the intriguing book of Joshua. —S. D. Snyman, University of the Free State
