Notes, Critical and Practical, on these books is George Bush’s in-depth commentary on this important portion of the Old Testament. In two volumes, Bush examines the title, author, and scope of each book, while also digging into the civil and ecclesiastical polity of the Israelites. He provides verse-by-verse commentary for a deeper understanding of this significant historical book, and dedicates additional pages on the subject of the “Shekinah,” a grammatically feminine Hebrew word that is important to understand when reading the Scriptures.

This textbook focuses primarily on the content and structure of the Pentateuch. The process which produced the Pentateuch and the long record of its use within Judaism and Christianity are intricate and fascinating stories, but it is the final forms of these five books to which we have the most reliable access. Discussions of historical and theological issues are included when they serve to illustrate the content and structure of the text. After an opening chapter, which introduces the major issues in the study of the Pentateuch, including a summary of the history of scholarship, a full chapter engages each of the five books. Attention to literary shape, texture, and artistry are at the forefront of the discussion, while historical and theological discussions are included where they are most informative. The book also includes many lists of textual data in each chapter. Most of these provide a view of features, which serve to connect and draw together the diverse literature of the Pentateuch. They are intended to serve as starting points for active textual research in a classroom setting. The material in this book is classroom tested and was even developed during successive opportunities to teach courses in the Pentateuch. - Publisher.
