Excerpt from From the Throne of Saul to Bethlehem Two little volumes - "From Eden to the Jordan" and "From the Jordan to the Throne of Saul" - have preceded the studies here presented. Just what work these volumes have done, no one can tell. If they have made the Way clearer or more beautiful, the heart that shaped their pages is glad. It will be borne in mind that in all this work little more than a simple introductory survey is possible. We are merely listening while the Book speaks - reverently opening life to the message of our God just as it is given On the pages of his word. Interpretations are for others. However legitimate their place in other works, they do not belong in this. And yet, at the last, he is best fitted to interpret and to pass judgment upon "problems" who knows best the very letter of revelation and has partaken most of its spirit. Hence the real value of outline work that keeps close to the text and close to Him who gaw it. With fervent prayer that those who keep company together in the pathways here sketched may find new joys in Him whom Bethlehem reveals, the work is committed to the favor of our God.

"A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
