Since we are doing Isaiah in Gospel Doctrine class, I thought I might get some input from the better read list members here. Here is a short list of authors and titles taken from a FARMS review. Have any of you read any of them? What did you think of it? Would you like to read some of them? Which ones? Are any of them without redeeming merit? I am particularly interested in opinions about Skousen and Gileadi since they seem to be so controversial. I have never met a scholar or intellectual who admires the scholarship of Skousen.
