Recommended Commentaries (Genesis - Deuteronomy) for Serious Bible Students

Dustin Smith, PhD, offers some highly suggested commentaries from the Pentateuch.

[@booklover3959]

I am anxiously waiting for Hermeneia to start releasing commentaries on the Pentateuch. And I am anxiously waiting for Ronald Hendel's commentary on Genesis in the Anchor BIble Series to come out. I am not saying that modern Evangelical commentaries are automatically bad but I get really tired of people only covering them. I like how you diversify.

@dustin Smith: Awaiting your recommendations on the next couple of books in the Old Testament. I really hope you do a few more books in the OT...maybe just like Judges, Samuel, chronicles etc. - don't stop. This was a great vid, & its been a big help to me too. Thank you.

[@rainstormr7650]

@dustin Smith: could you suggest some commentairies for ... Joshua, Judges, Ruth, Samuel, Kings & Chronicles. Thankyou.

Which English versions do you recommend as good detailed texts? Thanks.

[@AllegiancetotheKing]

NASB, NRSV, ESV.

[@mikerichards1264]

@@AllegiancetotheKing have you formed an opinion about the Legacy Standard Bible which is basically a "correction" of the NASB-95?

[@arunajena4224]

Sir Which commentaries gives a comprehensive view on the following verses - Genesis 4:4, 4:14, Exodus 4:11 and 4:24-26, and Deuteronomy 25:11-12 and 29: 23. Thank you very much.

[@AllegiancetotheKing]

WBC, Anchor Bible, and NIB are good places to start.

Where would you suggest to purchase these hots at reasonable prices? Good looking out!

[@AllegiancetotheKing]

I would add the ones I want to an amazon wish list and check occasionally to see if I can find a cheap used copy. 95% of my books are used, which is far cheaper than new.

Thank you for uploading these videos! Question for you, do you have a log of all your books? How do you avoid buying doubles? Thanks

[@AllegiancetotheKing]

I add books I want to amazon wish lists and amazon notifies me if I am browsing a book that I have already purchased.
