Of the writing of commentaries there is no end, but few are the commentaries that are simultaneously careful with the text, yet cast at the level of popular exposition—and this one is among the very best. It is a book you can recommend with confidence to just about anyone, for Richard Coekin manages to bring together an appropriate attention to detail, good writing, the sweep of the argument, and clear-sighted vision as to how this part of the Bible must work out in our lives.
