Om bind 1:
To most modern readers the book of Ezekiel is a mystery. Few can handle Ezekiel's relentless denunciations, his unconventional antics, his repetitive style, and his bewildering array of topics. This excellent commentary by Daniel I. Block makes sense of this obscure and often misunderstood prophet and demonstrates the relevance of Ezekiel's message for the church today.
These twin convictions, shared by all of the contributors to The New International Commentary on the Old Testament, define the goal of this ambitious series of commentaries. For those many modern readers who find the Old Testament to be strange and foreign soil, the NICOT series serves as an authoritative guide bridging the cultural gap between today's world and the world of ancient Israel. Each NICOT volume aims to help us hear God's word as clearly as possible.
Block's scholarship is especially valuable for a book as complicated and controversial as Ezekiel. Ezekiel's revelation of the theology underlying Israel's condition: the seriousness of sin, God's hatred and opposition to rebellious living, the centrality to all of life of being God's name-bearer in this world, all remind the reader over and over of how tolerance and casualness toward lack of covenant commitment and total obedience are toxic and ultimately lethal.
Block's presentation early on of the book as something of a first-person diary of date-stamped proclamations and dramatizations demonstrating the truth of Israel's standing and fate gives the book a very personal feel, which adds to its impact. By discussing the variety of possible interpretations for each of the complicated passages and then the reasons for the interpretation he feels best captures how to understand that passage increases the reader's overall perspective on the text as well as a better understanding of what Block is proposing as a preferred view.
Reading the daily news about conflict in Iraq (Babylon), Mosul (Nineveh), battles in Aleppo, and challenges in the streets of the capital, not far from the Chebar canal, makes reading the accounts of an on-the-scene reporter (Ezekiel) giving the theology behind the history of similar events, removed in time, but with the reminder that the causes are not fundamentally militaristic, economic, geopolitical or sectarian -- they are spiritual, they are driven by God's moral calendar that provides grace and opportunity for turning from rebellion, but not forever.
Ezekiel is a powerful minister in the face of spiritual rebellion and the catastrophes it ultimately brings. The price of the hardback may seem high when compared to other books, but when you begin to read it, you will be glad, I think, that you made the investment -- about the cost of a tank of gas for one's car. The book lasts longer and the insights adjusted my view of myself and the international news I read from now on.

Om bind 2:
This work completes Daniel Block's two-volume commentary on the book of Ezekiel. The result of twelve years of studying this difficult section of Scripture, this volume, like the one on chapters 1-24, provides an excellent discussion of the background of Ezekiel and offers a verse-by-verse exposition that makes clear the message of this obscure and often misunderstood prophet. Block also shows that Ezekiel's ancient wisdom and vision are still very much needed as we enter the twenty-first century.

Om serien:
“In the Old Testament we read God’s word as it was spoken to his people Israel. Today, thousands of years later, we hear in these thirty-nine books His inspired and authoritative message for us.”
These twin convictions, shared by all of the contributors to The New International Commentary on the Old Testament, define the goal of this ambitious series of commentaries. For those many modern readers who find the Old Testament to be strange and foreign soil, the NICOT series serves as an authoritative guide bridging the cultural gap between today’s world and the world of ancient Israel. Each NICOT volume aims to help us hear God’s word as clearly as possible.
Scholars, pastors, and serious Bible students will welcome the fresh light that this commentary series casts on ancient yet familiar biblical texts. The contributors apply their proven scholarly expertise and wide experience as teachers to illumine our understanding of the Old Testament. As gifted writers, they present the results of the best recent research in an interesting manner.
Each commentary opens with an introduction to the Biblical book, looking especially at questions concerning its background, authorship, date, purpose, structure, and theology. A select bibliography also points readers to resources for their own study. The author’s own translation from the original Hebrew forms the basis of the commentary proper. Verse-by-verse comments nicely balance in-depth discussions of technical matters ― textual criticism, critical problems, and so on ― with exposition of the biblical writer’s theology and its implications for the life of faith today.
