Soggin, J. A. Joshua. OTL. Westminster John Knox/SCM, 1972. xvii/245 pp. Soggin, an Italian scholar writing in the German tradition, emphasizes historical and archaeological studies. There is not much theological comment. S Woudstra, M. The Book of Joshua. NICOT. Eerdmans, 1981. xiv/396 pp. Woudstra gives a very good exegetical analysis of the book. He also has an excellent biblical-theological sense. There are some good literary observations, but much more could be done in this area. LM
