J. G. McConville examines the often overlooked books of I and II Chronicles, highlighting their theological significance in interpreting God's ways during the period of restoration after the Exile.Taking a careful look at the setting, form, and content of I and II Chronicles, J. G. McConville describes how these two often neglected books present God's purpose for his people at a crucial time in their history—the period of restoration after the Exile. He shows the author, referred to as the Chronicler, to be “a theologian, sharing with all the biblical writers the burden of interpreting God’s ways to human beings.” The Chronicler uses the history of the monarchy, particularly the reigns of David and Solomon, as models to be imitated by their successors. They exemplify how faithfulness results in blessings for the people; unfaithfulness, as personified by Saul, in impoverishment. Although the second book ends in the destruction of Jerusalem, the Chronicler concludes optimistically, looking forward to the return of the people to their land and anticipating the endless possibilities existing for those who walk with God.

Jerusalem or to the Babylonian exiles….It is we who are addressed by this, the first and, from the Church’s point of view, the most influential of the Old Testament prophets.” In guiding the reader through this rich and enormously influential book, Sawyer concentrates not so much on what actually happened as on why an account is given in one way rather than another and what it means for readers today.

David F. Payne helps readers see the importance of this pivotal biblical book and guides them in applying its message to today's world. In his perceptive commentary, David F. Payne helps readers see the importance of this pivotal biblical book and guides them in applying its message to today's world. Deuteronomy consists of three major addresses to the people in which Moses repeats the laws already set forth. Why, then, is Deuteronomy necessary with its repeat of law and covenant? “The internal logic of Deuteronomy,” writes Payne, “provides one answer to this question: Israel’s forthcoming entry into the Promised Land would create a dramatic break with the past, as a wandering people become a settled nation, with an entirely different way of life. So Israel’s great leader, Moses, takes great pains to make sure that Israel will be faithful to her God-given law and covenant, and will remember her formative past.” Readers, then as now, are called upon to “renew their covenant with God; or… to examine their hearts and lives, and then to reassert their loyalty to God’s calling and service.” The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience.

A meaningful commentary of the Old Testament history books of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther provide crucial insights into the restored Judean community after exile and the diaspora's significance.Set in the Persian Empire, one of the greatest kingdoms the world has ever known, the stories contained in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah provide the most comprehensive scriptural account of the restored Judean community after the Babylonian exile. According to J. G. McConville, “If Chronicles [the preceding book] tells us that God acted in mercy by restoring his people, Judah, Ezra-Nehemiah will reveal to us how they fared upon their return.” The book of Esther is also set in the Persian period of Israel's history, although the concern is for a different community. This book shows, says McConville, "that the Jews of the diaspora— i. e. those Jews who did not return to Jerusalem following Cypress’s decree — were still counted as God’s people and had a role to play in the future of the whole."The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience.

To read and study the Book of Job is to grow up in the faith with a vengeance; and that is worth all the theology in the world."The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience.

A. Graeme Auld's commentary on the Books of Kings highlights the historical and theological message about the Israelite monarchy's rise and fall, emphasizing the enduring relevance of remaining faithful to a higher authority.In this illuminating commentary, A. Graeme Auld helps readers understand the message—historical and theological—contained in the story of the Israelite monarchy. The period under discussion in the Books of Kings extends from the last days of King David and the reign of Solomon, some time before the middle of the tenth century B.C., to the end of the monarchy and the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple by the Babylonians in 587 or 586 B.C. Addressed to the Israelites now exiled, the books emphasize that when the kings of Israel, seeking to improve political, economic, and cultural affairs, turned their people from God, the people lost their earthly possessions and favor with God as well. The message of the Books of Kings remains relevant to today's world. It concerns power and the constant need for remaining faithful to an authority that is superior to earthly rulers.The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience.

Aitken deepens our understanding of the collection of popular sayings and folk wisdom of ancient Israel. "We need not," according to Aitken, "dig very deeply into the book to find that the sage looks at life from a different angle from priest or prophet….The sage concerns himself with people as plain, ordinary individuals who live in the world, and with the wisdom and folly of their attitudes and actions in the common things of life."The Daily Study Bible series seamlessly continues the legacy of William Barclay’s renowned New Testament series by delving into the texts of the Old Testament, weaving together ancient wisdom and modern insights for a transformative reading experience.
