His eloquent renditions are paired with deeply informed discussions about the conditions surrounding each poem, including its history and whatÃthe best religious scholarship and literary criticism tell us about how the poem should be understood. Kugel explains traditions, clarifies often-misunderstood language, and offers readers wonderfully insightful explanations that are indispensable to understanding the poems and, ultimately, the fundamental teachings of the Old Testament.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
