Rick Yentzer Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 My interest lies in the wisdom books, Psalms, Proverbs, Job and Ecclesiastes. What Accordance resources would you recommend for in-depth learning of these specific books? I currently have the Library Premier and IVP collection. Thanks, Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Sadly, my favorite resources for these books aren't available in Accordance. Psalms: James Mays' Interpretation commentary; J. Clinton McCann's New Interpreter's Bible commentary; John Goldingay's 3-volume Baker commentary; "Interpreting the Psalms" by Patrick D. Miller Proverbs: Richard J. Clifford's Old Testament Library commentary Job: Norman Habel's Old Testament Library commentary; Carol Newsom's New Interpreter's Bible commentary; "On Job" by Gustavo Guti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Yentzer Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 After asking the same question elsewhere it appears that Kidner and Longman are also highly recommended. Now to decide between the Tyndale or the EBC. Decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Terry Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I would recommend Tyndale. I have both and find myself using Tyndale as the initial 'goto' resource for most of my textual studies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Fidel Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I would recommend Tyndale. I have both and find myself using Tyndale as the initial 'goto' resource for most of my textual studies. I also prefer the Tyndale set for most of the OT over the EBC. According to www.bestcommentaries.com the Tyndale volumes are #1 for Job, and 3 and 4 for Proverbs and Psalms respectively. This analysis, while subjective, includes all commentary sets. The Tyndale set is very strong in the OT volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Holmstedt Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I really appreciate the input. I will purchase the Tyndale series. The Hermeneia series is very high scholarship in general. I have consulted the volume on Ecclesiastes and it is quite good. I have the volumes on Psalms and Song of Songs, but have not used them as much. Also, the Word Biblical Commentaries are good, but although I have them for Accordance, I can no longer find them on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Yentzer Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Apparently now that Harper Collins has purchased Thomas Nelson, the contract is being renegotiated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
