In its fourth edition (revised and expanded), Old Testament Theology continues to provide the best broad-spectrum coverage available on the subject.

This standard survey and reference work on Old Testament theology has gone from its original 100 pages in 1972 to 260 pages in the current edition. The subject matter remains the same, with new material added in the subsections and conclusions. The bibliography has been expanded to more than 40 pages making it what some consider the most up-to-date and comprehensive bibliography ever published. The indices have also been expanded in corresponding manner.

The author includes his own solutions to the main problems that scholars have struggled with in Old Testament theology. This resource remains of great value to both pastors and professors.
