This Sunday I’m preaching an Old Testament passage—I know, I know… It’s been too long. I’m preaching on the call of a very reluctant, very ambiguous hero named Gideon from Judges 6. As you may know, I’m a fan of N.T. Wright’s For Everyone New Testament commentary series. I’m pleased that Westminster John Knox expanded the series to include the Old Testament as well, using an Old Testament scholar named John Goldingray.
I’m sure the commentary is great. (I just removed it from its Amazon box.) But get a load of this cover! Is it really the Old Testament for everyone, or just really attractive young people?
