Blurb: Certain People of the Book is ostensibly a series of character studies—of Ahasuerus, Balaam, Naomi, Rebekah, the three principal wives of David, Jezebel, and Joseph, together with thumbnail sketches of “the supporting cast.” It is hard for one who is not an expert to tell how much is original in Mr. Samuel’s treatment. Perhaps at this date originality in commenting on the Bible is no longer possible. But if it is still possible, Mr. Samuel has achieved it.
