1 & 2 SAMUEL
By David G. Firth
IVP. 614 pages. £24.99
ISBN 978-0-84474-368-1

Sometimes you don't know how much you wanted something until you got it! That will be the reaction of every reader of this commentary.

Dr. Firth is hugely acquainted with the literature on the books of Samuel, and deploys his knowledge skilfully — and readably — and without being in thrall to the opinions of others.
