General Introduction to the Bible

A General Introduction to the Bible is a comprehensive treatment of the Bible that offers a careful conservative scholarship. This large, revised edition is organized into four sections: inspiration, canonization, transmission, and translation. Several chapters have been revised and enlarged, and new charts and sections have been added that treat the doctrine of inspiration, contemporary theories of revelation and inspiration, recent trends in textual criticism, and a review of modern English Bible translations.
