Eerdmans Biblical Resources Series (14 vols.)
Overview
The Eerdmans Biblical Resources Series reprints titles that the scholarly community regards as essential resources for the biblical thinker of today, but that have long been difficult to obtain. Chosen in consultation with an editorial board of eminent biblical scholars, each volume features an introduction that outlines the importance of the work and summarizes its subsequent influences.
What's more, many of these volumes have been produced as new and revised editions specifically for the Biblical Resources Series. Detailing numerous sub-fields of biblical studies, these volumes present important research and analysis of apocalyptic literature, Jewish Hellenistic culture, Hebrew poetry, comparative religion, the historical-cultural setting of Revelation, the concept of the Messiah in the Old Testament, the relationship of the Dead Sea Scrolls to the New Testament, and many more.
