Book Review: The Koren Tanakh

Abstract

spelling (e.g. Kimchi/Qimchi and pericope/perikope). Quotations from Hebrew are vocalised and the relevant Greek translations are included and discussed. A number of German sources are used and left untranslated, as are some French sources. These further the discussion but any reader who cannot read German or French will not find themselves greatly disadvantaged by this. Professor Spronk has included some useful tables to show the spread of narratives about the different judges, parallels with other texts and the Appendix shows ‘The Pericopes Within the Book of Judges According to MT and LXXManuscripts’, with web addresses for the Codex Sinaiticus and Vaticanus. Any exegete working on the book of Judges will want to refer to this volume and theological libraries with a good Scripture section should seriously consider investing in this commentary.
