Exploring the Old Testament: A Guide to the Pentateuch offers a clear overview of the "five books of Moses," as well as an introduction to the historical and textual questions that modern scholarship has posed and the answers it has proposed.

• the basic features of the Pentateuch
• the social world of the Bible
• the latest scholarship on the composition of the Pentateuch
• literary techniques and forms
• theme, composition and rhetorical function of the Pentateuch

In this textbook you will find double-column formatting for ease of use, annotated bibliographies for further reading, sidebar explorations of select historical and textual topics in greater detail, a glossary of terms, and relevant charts and maps.
