NAC 20: Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah

'The strength of the New American Commentary is that it genuinely focuses on
what the text says. This does not mean that the authors are out of touch with
the vast array of secondary literature; rather it means they are committed to
putting first things first. Pastors and Bible teachers will be grateful for
this resource for years to come.' - D.A. Carson
The implement employed in
these two prophets to capture the attention and hearts of God's people is the
symbol. In Joel it is the locust, a symbol of impending destruction. In Hosea
the prophet himself - and his scorned but constant love - dramatically portrays
God's message of grace and his call to repent. With his customary exegetical
skill and theological insight, Garrett guides us through these striking works
of prophetic literature.
Authors: Kenneth L. Barker and Waylon
Bailey.
'Good, competent commentary written from a premillennial
perspective. [Especially the commentary on Nahum is] a strongly written,
well-thought-out, and well-researched analysis [...] sensitive to the important
theological themes.' - Tremper Longman
