Hearing the Message of Scripture: A Commentary on the Old Testament

Floyd Johnson

I am in the process of preparing reviews for these two books.  This looks like a new series that might be worth getting in LOGOS as they are produced, rather than waiting for a bundle:

http://www.amazon.com/Obadiah-Kingship-Scripture-Commentary-Testament/dp/0310942403/tag=fhj-20 

http://www.amazon.com/Jonah-Scandalous-Scripture-Commentary-Testament/dp/0310282993/tag=fhj-20 

As best I can tell, these are currently the only two available in the series.

Mark Johnson

You are correct.  These are the first two volumes in the series.  The sooner they are available in Logos, the better!

Looks interesting Floyd.  Can you post links to your reviews when you are done.

Will do - probably early next week.  I just received my PDF copies this afternoon.  As I read the preface, I did note that the publisher is making preparation for the book to be available in electronic formats - "The electronic version of this commentary series will also include the Hebrew font" along with its transliteration. (p. 12 - Boldface is my own addition)

As promised, the first review, on Obadiah, is completed:  http://bit.ly/Block_Obadiah 

I still would like to see these republished (sooner rather than later) in LOGOS.

I have just posted my Review of the Jonah commentary:

I trust that others will find these reviews and the books discussed of use in their preparation - whether as a pastor or as a scholar.

You are welcome -

I found the Obadiah commentary of enough interest that I am filling a two-week slot up with a couple of sermons based on Obadiah before leaving on a two week vacation [:)] to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary [:)].

Congratulations on 40 years. May there be many more years to celebrate with your Bride.

Floyd--if your Obadiah sermons are posted online anywhere, I'd love to hear/read them.

I also preach weekly and just finished reading and reviewing the Obadiah commentary. (Posted here.) I am also very tempted to do a week or two on it!

Since I no longer have serve a traditional church - but a group of seniors, most of whom have chosen to not have access to the INTERNET - I no longer post my sermons directly online.  I have occasionally, but it no longer serves the same purpose it did.  On the other hand, if you would like to see the sermon outlines I prepared, feel free to send a fractured e-mail address that I could use to mail them to you.

Floyd, I never followed this thread by email so am only now seeing your reply. Does your offer still stand? I'd love to see what you came up with for Obadiah. You can reach me here.
