"He has succeeded in producing a readable introductory text for studentswith little or no background in Bible. Sandmel is creative in simplifying thehistory and beliefs of early Israel but without compromising on accuracy."--PaulD.

Sandmel is creative in simplifying the history and beliefs of early Israel but without compromising on accuracy."--Paul D. Duertesen, Eastern New Mexico University, "Lucidly written....It has many virtues as a manual of instruction: conciseness, fairness to variant views, and historical and religious imagination."--Journal of Biblical Literature, "I like the format of the book, since it begins with the prophets and onlythen moves to the Pentateuch.
