The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Deuteronomy

"The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Deuteronomy" by Andrew Harper is a commentary that grapples with important questions about a religious text. It navigates the challenge of understanding Deuteronomy by addressing the debates over who wrote it and when, especially as some scholars question traditional beliefs. The author wants to provide an explanation of Deuteronomy that takes into account modern ways of thinking about history, without taking away from the lessons about God and how to live a good life that the text provides. This framework sets a path to dive into the rules and stories, and spotlight the connection between God and His followers through the ages.
