Isaiah 56-66 (ICC) cover

John Goldingay completes his work of commentary on the latter part of Isaiah, writing specifically on Isaiah 56-66, so-called 'trito-Isaiah'.

For over one hundred years International Critical Commentaries have had a special place among works on the Bible. They bring together all the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, archaeological, historical, literary, and theological - to help the reader understand the meaning of the books of the Old and New Testaments.

The new commentaries continue this tradition. All new evidence now available is incorporated and new methods of study are applied. The authors are of the highest international standing. No attempt has been made to secure a uniform theological or critical approach to the biblical text: contributors have been invited for their scholarly distinction, not for their adherence to any one school of thought.

Professor John Goldingay, a noted specialist on Deutero and Trito Isaiah continues his breathtaking work of commentary, following his widely acclaimed volumes (with David Payne) of the International Critical Commentary on Isaiah 40-55.

Whoever wishes to read the text of Isaiah 56-66 with its philological, text-critical and literary problems in mind, in the manner of close reading and thereby precisely read and understand it will find this commentary to be a depository of information of first class quality. * Zeitschridt für die Alttestamentliche Wissenschaft, Vol 126, Book 3 *
This substantial commentary is the latest installment from John Goldingay’s prolific pen ... this commentary [is] a valuable resource for the interpretation of Isaiah 56-66. Publication in the ICC series ensures that this commentary will be a standard reference work for years to come. -- Jacob Stromberg, The Divinity School, Duke University * Journal of Theological Studies *
