About this book
Interpret with clarity and preach with conviction. Dr. Michael Barrett blends scholarly rigor with practical applications, calling his approach "a new book from an old-school perspective." His Old Testament Introduction will become an essential tool for students, pastors, and Bible teachers who seek exegetical precision and impactful insights. Forged by a seasoned evangelical scholar with decades in the classroom and the pulpit, Dr. Barrett's work stands on this bedrock conviction: Scripture is God's inspired Word. From that foundation, readers are equipped to tackle critical theories while understanding the timeless relevance of the Old Testament for Christians today.
