Hermeneia and Continental Commentaries (74 vols.)
This unique collection brings together two leading technical commentary series.
The Hermeneia series is designed to be a critical and historical commentary to the Bible without arbitrary limits in size or scope. It utilizes the full range of philological and historical tools, including textual criticism (often slighted in modern commentaries), the methods of the history of tradition (including genre and prosodic analysis), and the history of religion.
The Continental Commentary Series makes leading critical biblical scholarship from German and French scholars available to the English-speaking world. This series combines scholarly excellence with academic rigor to benefit pastors, students, and scholars of both the Old and New Testament.
- Comprises both the Continental Commentaries and Hermeneia Commentaries
- A fantastic collection for students, teachers, scholars, and professors
- Contains rich bibliographies
- Includes translation with linguistic notes
Taken together, Hermeneia represents some of the best recent biblical scholarship . . . I have no hesitation in recommending them for students.
—Morna D. Hooker, Lady Margaret’s Professor of Divinity Emerita, University of Cambridge
Hermeneia will be the benchmark and reference point for all future work.
—Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary

Having spent years with the 'leave no stone unturned' perspective of coming to grips with the meaning of the language, and any problem(s) of interpretation within that portion of the Scripture. There have been numerous times when Hermeneia served as my Philip and enabled me to understand and/or to better understand what I was reading. While the initial price price may appear daunting, I updated the volumes I had purchased for less than $50. That only reinforced my appreciation for having purchased the set early on!
