Status Updates From El problema del Antiguo Tes...

The best way I can describe this book so far is as grounded. Dr. Garrett uses reason and an understanding of the cultural background of the OT to teach the reader how to read the OT without falling into ditches that create more problems than they solve.

Alright so now buy this book for the chapter on the Law and on issues in narrative dealing with biblical allusions

His chapter on the Law alone is worth purchasing this book! Incredibly helpful.

A strange mixture of really helpful to me and strongly disagreeing with parts at the same time.

This book asks a lot of the questions I've been asking which I'm grateful for! It's fairly obvious, though, that the author prioritizes the MT, does not think much of the LXX, and really doesn't think much of early Christian interpretation of the OT, which I really don't find fair.
