Eugene H. Merrill is distinguished professor emeritus of Old Testament studies at Dallas Theological Seminary in Dallas, Texas. His other publications include Kingdom of Priests.
"Although Chronicles is one of the longest books in the Bible, it
is also among the most neglected. Thankfully, scholars in recent
decades have begun to remedy this unfortunate deficit. Readers will
welcome, therefore, the detailed attention given to historical,
comparative, and theological issues in the substantive commentary
of Eugene Merrill."--Gerald Knoppers, John A. O'Brien Professor of
Theology, University of Notre Dame (9/15/2015 12:00:00 AM)
"Beginning with nine chapters of genealogies, readers (and even
preachers) often neglect the book of Chronicles. After all,
Samuel-Kings covers much the same historical ground. Eugene
Merrill, one of the foremost interpreters of the Old Testament
today, carefully and skillfully guides us through the theological
and historical dimensions of Chronicles, showing its unique
richness. His work illumines the book of Chronicles for today's
readers. I recommend it for all serious students of the Bible, but
especially for pastors who want to (and should) preach from this
fascinating book."--Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor
of Biblical Studies, Westmont College (9/15/2015 12:00:00 AM)
