<br/><br/> The strength of Eissfeldt's great work lies not only in its vast range, or in its superb articulation, or in its extraordinary command of the vast literature of the field, but also in the clarity of its exposition, in its sound judgment, in its appropriation of the best results of previous scholarly work, and withal, in its independence. Amidst the almost bewildering maze of contemporary scholarship he steers a steady course.
