This commentary is extraordinary, in that it is accompanied by a CD-ROM. The reader is also invited to consult the commentary’s website for further information and updates. The text itself is user-friendly. A detailed outline of the biblical book precedes its interpretation. Written for the general reader, the section-by-section commentary demonstrates Brueggemann’s ability to relate biblical issues to contemporary situations. Each page is laid out in an attractive manner and sometimes includes icons that alert the reader to additional information about the meaning of a Hebrew word, insight into a detail of culture, a connection with a contemporary issue, or suggestions for further reading. Helpful maps and reproductions of classic art such as Picasso’s Guernica and Doré’s engraving of The Pentecost are found throughout the book.
