This commentary offers a thorough exegesis and exposition of Haggai and Malachi, two books that have often been overlooked and misunderstood. Peter Verhoef's introduction to each book elucidates the questions of authorship, style, text, structure, historical background, and message. Verhoef also brings his knowledge of the ancient Near East, the Old Testament, and past and current biblical scholarship to bear in the commentary proper, and he displays theological acumen and pastoral sensitivity in tailoring his exposition for the student and pastor as well as for the scholar.

Pieter A. Verhoef is professor emeritus of Old Testament at the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa, and the author of numerous books and articles in the field of biblical studies.
