Om værket:
Provan treats 1 and 2 Kings as a unified whole nestled within its canonical context. Kings constantly presupposes knowledge of the remainder of the story of Israel and invites reflection upon itself in the light of the prophetic writings and of the New Testament. It is examined here as narrative literature with historiographical intent, designed to teach its readers about God and the Ways of God. Provan does a masterful job of drawing the reader's attention to themes that are repeated in Kings, such as the theme of God's promise and how it is fulfilled among God's people. He has succeeded in making Kings a more readily accessible book.
Ian W. Provan, the Marshall Sheppard Professor of Biblical Studies at Regent College, has given us a treasure by writing this extremely helpful expositional commentary on 1 & 2 Kings. Provan provides excellent historical context for 1 & 2 Kings; for example, he gives a helpful overview about the Assyrian and Aramean empires, which aids readers in gaining a contextual understanding of many events in 2 Kings. Besides providing very complete expositions of each chapter in 1 & 2 Kings and explaining important issues in the biblical passages, Provan includes excellent additional notes at the end of each chapter which explains key phrases, persons, or places mentioned in 1 & 2 Kings. Another helpful feature are the excurses which focusses on the historical significance of important biblical men such as King Solomon, Elijah, and Elisha in the canonical context. This is a top-notch commentary on 1 & 2 Kings.
