Konkel's enthusiasm for the writer of the books of Chronicles as theologian and historian makes for a compelling read. Faced with the challenge of writing a commentary on a text that begins with a lengthy genealogy, followed by what has been pejoratively called midrash by critical scholars, Konkel demonstrates that an inspiring interpretation of this inspired text engages all of Scripture in conversation. In Konkel's hands, Chronicles becomes a central canonical voice, a nexus in the biblical metanarrative. --Lynn Jost professor of Old Testament and preaching, Fresno Pacific Biblical Seminary (12/20/2015 12:00:00 AM)
