Historical Books of the Old Testament: Judith

Judith is Volume 40 in the acclaimed Anchor Bible series of new book-by-book translations of the Old and New Testaments and Apocrypha. In his illuminating new translation and commentary, Carey A. Moore considers the historicity of the story and explores the author's true intent: Was it to describe actual events or to compose a fictitious story for other purposes? Was his concern more historical or theological?

Includes Hebrew and Latin renderings of the Book of Judith; Text in English, Greek Hebrew or Latin.

This volume of commentary on the shorter books of the Apocrypha follows the pattern of the now well established New Testament series.
