This commentary on the book of Malachi follows the format the series Historical
Commentary of the Old Testament has become known for (a new
translation, essentials and perspectives, scholarly exposition including
an introduction to and a verse by verse exegesis). The commentary
incorporates the most recent research on the book of Malachi and
provides the reader with a fresh translation where more than one
possible translation is given at some problematic verses. The stylistic
device of antithesis used predominantly in the book of Malachi is
highlighted illustrating the impact this has on the understanding of the
book. A new look at the literary genres used in the book is also given
together with a reconsideration of the demarcation of some of the units.
Attention is also paid to the theological message of each unit as well
as of the book as a whole.
