This is the leading scholarly commentary series firmly committed to Scripture as the Word of God.In this commentary, Dr. Klein uses the tools and techniques of historical criticism to interpret the final, deuteronomistic form of the book of Samuel. For each pericope, he supplies a bibliography, a fresh translation, and extensive text-critical notes. Because of the complex charater of the Masoretic Text, Dr. Klein gives extensive space to text-critical questions. Yet, readers with no dvanced skills in Hebrew or interest in textual criticism may pass over the Notes and fully understand the rest of the commentary.Dr. Klein has chosen a historical reading as the best way to describe what 1 Samuel meant to its original audience. He has also taken care to appreciate the aestheic qualities of the text and to read it as a whole, the way in which those who first read or heard 1 Samuel understood it. For this Second Edition of the work, Dr. Klein has made minor revisions to the text, and has updated the references and bibliographies.

Exile brought a host of physical, socioeconomic, and theological problems for Israel. Ralph Klein examines six theological traditions of exillic theology - Lamentations, the Deuteronomistic History, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Second Isaiah, and the Priestly Writing in the Pentateuch - for evidence of Israel's response to the exillic crisis. His careful study highlights the literary legacy of Israel's anxiety and stress over the loss of its temple and its king. The author points to a theological blueprint of hope for modern "exiles" in coping with challenges to faith. --- from book's back cover

This commentary takes full advantage of recent advances in the textual history of Samuel and Kings, demonstrating in many cases that the differences often ascribed to the Chronicler came in fact from the divergent copy of the canonical books he was rewriting. Klein brings to lively expression the unique theological voice of the Chronicler and demonstrates there have been far fewer secondary additions to the text than is normally assumed.
