He also engages with other biblical scholars and commentators, both ancient and modern, to provide a comprehensive and well-rounded analysis of the books.Overall, the Biblical Commentary on the Books of Samuel (1866) is a valuable resource for scholars, pastors, and lay readers who seek a deeper understanding of the historical, cultural, and theological significance of these important books in the Old Testament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
