Description

The New International Commentary on the Old Testament (NICOT) is one of the most respected and substantial Old Testament commentary series in modern biblical scholarship. Written for pastors, scholars, and serious students of Scripture, NICOT offers thorough exegesis grounded in the Hebrew text while remaining accessible to readers without advanced training in the biblical languages. Each volume combines careful linguistic analysis with historical, literary, and theological reflection, helping readers understand the Old Testament books in their ancient context and within the broader canon of Scripture.

What distinguishes NICOT from many other Old Testament commentary sets is its deliberate balance of depth and readability. These volumes engage directly with textual and critical issues, including grammar, syntax, and literary structure, but present their conclusions in clear prose rather than dense technical shorthand. At the same time, NICOT avoids the brevity and simplification common in more devotional or survey-level commentaries. The result is a series that rewards careful study, serving equally well for sermon preparation, teaching, and advanced personal study.

The series has been shaped by a strong editorial vision committed to both scholarly rigor and evangelical faith. Under the long-standing general editorship of Robert L. Hubbard Jr., following the foundational work of R. K. Harrison, NICOT has maintained consistently high academic standards while engaging constructively with critical scholarship. Contributors include many of the most respected Old Testament scholars of the past several decades, whose work reflects deep expertise in Hebrew, Ancient Near Eastern backgrounds, and Old Testament theology.

Like its New Testament counterpart, NICOT is not a static or dated series. Volumes are periodically replaced rather than merely revised, ensuring that the set reflects current scholarship while preserving its commitment to the authority of Scripture. Published by William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, the New International Commentary on the Old Testament stands as a trusted, enduring resource for those who want to study the Old Testament with both intellectual seriousness and theological depth.

Note that volumes for the following books are yet to be published and will be added to this PocketBible edition when they become available: Exodus, Joshua, 1&2 Kings, 1&2 Chronicles, Esther, and Daniel.
