Reviews

However, individuals interested in the interpretation of 1 Samuel will also find plenty of food for thought. The Expository Times DeLapp sets out the historical and social context of his subjects of study before examining their interpretation of David's life ... [and] there are clear advantages to this approach for the reader. Journal of Theological Studies
