A must-have

This book is part of the Everyman's Bible Commentary series produced by the Moody Bible Institute's Moody Press. In this book, Professor J. Carl Laney examines these two books chapter-by-chapter and verse-by-verse. This book is not intended to be a stand-alone study, but is intended to go along with those books, containing many bible references that you will need to look up. Also, the author does not always take the biblical text at face value, but points out where it disagrees with other passages, offering explanation for the discrepancy.This is a great book, surely the basis for a wonderful study. The book's clarity, coupled with its many maps makes it a must-have.
