Biblical Backgrounds (CHR 213): Basic Resources

Best one-volume backgrounds reference for OT. Arranged in canonical order. If you could only buy two volumes for biblical backgrounds research, buy this volume and the sister volume by Keener for NT.

An excellent resource to learn what backgrounds may be significant for a given NT passage, but see Evans/Porter for more detailed treatment of specific topics.

Dr. Dubis' favorite one-volume reference for articles on specific NT backgrounds.

This volume and the two other volumes in this set are similar to Keener in that it follows a canonical arrangement.

An accessible multivolume work with full-color photos.

The least scholarly of any of the volumes on this page but still useful.
