This book is a collection of chapters by members of the Society of Old Testament Study, surveying the work done in the Old Testament field since the publication in 1951 of The Old Testament and Modern Study (ed. H. H. Rowley). The volume is not only a record of the progress of research in these areas but also a reflection of changing perspectives in Old Testament Study and an appraisal of important changes in method and approach. All the chapters are well documented and provided with short bibliographies.
