A Brief Book Notice from Books At a Glance

by Fred Zaspel

 

Some time back I mentioned here that Waltke’s commentary on Proverbs is the unchallenged best resource available. That massive two-volume commentary is threatening to some, not to mention a financial challenge, and so this new abridged version will be a welcome option for many.

Ivan De Silva, one of Waltke’s former students, has boiled down those two volumes to give us the cream. Still rich with Waltke’s exegetical and theological insights, and still rich with wisdom, this is a leaner and quicker resource for the study of Proverbs.

Get the two volumes or get this one-volume version. One way or the other this is a “must-have” for any study of Proverbs!
