Old Testament – Its Making and Meaning

Today’s free book is H. Wheeler Robinson’s introduction to the Old Testament. Robinson was Principal Emeritas of Regent’s Park College and Speaker’s Lecturer in Biblical Studies, sometime Reader in Biblical Criticism in the University of Oxford. My thanks to Book Aid for making a copy of this book available for digitisation.
