The International Critical Commentary is known for its scholarly and critical approach to the scriptures. This commentary by Curtis takes a critical look at the Old Testament books of Chronicles. He begins with an introductory section discussing these books in light of historical criticism, the structure of the chronicles, problems of geneology, peculiarities in the text and the Hebrew traditions surrounding them. The following analysis then comments on the linguistic and textual structure. This is not a book for the average lay person.
