Edited by Bill T. Arnold and Hugh G. M. Williamson, the Dictionary of the Old Testament Historical Books is the second volume in IVP's award-winning and ground breaking Old Testament dictionary series.

2009 Christianity Today Merit Award winner! 2009 Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) Christian Book Award winner!The Old Testament books of wisdom and poetry carry themselves differently from those of the Pentateuch, the histories or the prophets.

The hymns, laments and thanksgivings of Israel, the dirge of Lamentations, the questionings of Qohelet, the love poetry of the Song of Songs, the bold drama of Job and the proverbial wisdom of Israel all offer their textures to this great body of biblical literature. Then too there are the finely... Less
