TOTC 05: Deuteronomy

Deuteronomy has been aptly described as a book 'on the boundary': it addresses
the possibilities of new life 'beyond the Jordan' as dependent upon Israel's
keeping of the law and acknowledgment of Yahweh's supremacy. Moses leaves the
people with his last will and testament that would ensure their success and
well-being in the new land. Ted Woods expounds this book's breathtaking and
all-encompassing vision, and shows how the Israelites, from king to ordinary
citizen, were exhorted to make its words the interpreter of their life's story
within the land.

These commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what
the text says and what it means. The Introduction to each book gives a concise
but thorough treatment of its authorship, date , original setting and purpose.
Following a structural Analysis, the Commentary takes the book
section-by-section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on
individual verses and problems of interpretation. Additional Notes provide
fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new Old Testament volumes,
the commentary on each section of the text is structured under three headings:
Context, Comment and Meaning. The goal is to explain the true meaning of the
Bible and make its message plain.
