An Interpretation of the English Bible. Volume III: NUMBERS to RUTH

Unlock the Rich Typology, History, and Divine Counsel of the Old Testament.

How do the wilderness wanderings, the conquest of Canaan, and the quiet faithfulness of Ruth connect to God's overarching plan of redemption?

In this classic third volume of An Interpretation of the English Bible, legendary theologian and founding president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Dr. B. H. Carroll, guides readers through Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, and Ruth. Edited by his close associate J. B. Cranfill, this work captures Carroll's celebrated lecture-style exposition-rigorous in scholarship, unapologetically conservative, and alive with practical, devotional warmth.

Inside Volume III, you will find:

• Numbers: A deep look into the wanderings, failures, and divine discipline of Israel, highlighting the brazen serpent and Balaam's prophecies as vivid types of Christ.

• Deuteronomy: A majestic analysis of Moses' farewell addresses, the renewal of the covenant, and the profound theological foundation of biblical law.

• Joshua: Strategic and spiritual insights into the conquest of Canaan, the division of the land, and the timeless call to courageous faith.

• Judges: A sober examination of the cycles of apostasy, judgment, and deliverance, illustrating human frailty and God's persistent mercy.

• Ruth: A beautiful exposition of the Kinsman-Redeemer, showcasing God's sovereign providence in the lineage of David and Jesus Christ.

Written with a preacher's heart and a scholar's grasp of the English text, Carroll avoids dry academic jargon, making profound historical and theological insights accessible to pastors, Bible students, Sunday school teachers, and lay readers alike.

About the Author
from http: //www.bhcarroll.edu/who-was-bh-carroll B. H. Carroll (1843-1914) was a giant among Baptist leaders. While pastor of First Baptist Church of Waco for almost thirty years, he strengthened the Baptist witness and profoundly influenced the social life and political structures across Texas and the South. He became a legendary expositor. He was involved at every level of Baptist life. Other denominational leaders consulted with him on all important decisions. Yet, Carroll's most enduring legacy was in theological education. In his pastoral study, he tutored Baylor ministerial students and developed theological courses that were put into the university curriculum. Carroll chaired the Baylor board of trustees, served on its faculty, and was Dean of the Bible Department. He led the trustees to start Baylor Theological Seminary (1905) and later convinced the BGCT to separate it as a free-standing institution (1907). In 1908 he chartered it as Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Altogether, Carroll taught for forty-three years. By publishing his curriculum in the Baptist Standard, he extended his influence across the South. He did more to form the theology and shape the ideals of preachers than any other person of his generation. George W. Truett said this was Carroll's crowning work and his real passion: "No other task in all his life seemed so completely to enthrall his thoughts and energies as the task of Ministerial Education...this man, in season, out of season, pleaded forever for the better education of God's preachers.
