Hosea

Description

Hosea’s bold imagery–a recounting of his own marriage to a prostitute–sets the stage for his message of God’s enduring love, righteous judgment and persistent offer of reconciliation. David Allan Hubbard explores the historical, cultural, literary and theological dimensions of Hosea’s life and message.

“The Tyndale volumes have long been the premier shorter-length commentary series on both Testaments throughout the English-speaking world.”–Craig Blomberg, Denver Seminary

“Tyndale commentaries are always useful, not least because they focus so clearly on the text of Scripture, and do not fall into the trap of paying too much attention to other commentaries and not enough to the scriptural text they are intended to expound and explain. So they retain their usefulness for preachers, Bible study leaders and for all readers of the Bible.”–Peter Adam, principal, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia

“Within its constraints, this series includes some outstanding volumes.”–D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

“There simply is no series of medium-length commentaries that approaches the excellence of the Tyndale commentaries.”–Donald A. Hagner, Fuller Theological Seminary

Hubbard (B.A., B.D., Th.M., Ph.D., D.D., L.H.D., Lit.D.) served as professor of Old Testament and president of Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. He died in 1996.
