• Analyzes the composition and organization of the book
• Provides verse-by-verse commentary

Praise for the Print Edition

This volume strikes us, on a cursory perusal, as equal to any of its predecessors, in learning, ingenuity and force of style, while it is certainly superior to some of them in conciseness of style and soundness of judgment.
