1.3.3.2. Multivolume Commentaries for the Entire Bible by Multiple Authors. To save space,
multivolume commentaries oen combine treatments of multiple biblical books into a single
volume. A dierent author usually writes the commentary on each biblical book. In this case, treat
each author’s commentary like a chapter in a book written by several authors (SBLHS 6.2.23).
Multivolume commentaries cited in a footnote should use the abbreviated title listed in SBLHS
8.4.1–2. e author of the section should still be cited. e bibliographical entry may provide the
complete title and publication information of the larger work or use the abbreviated title, as in the
nal example below.

1.3.4 Single-Volume Commentaries on the Entire Bible
Check the resource carefully. Some single-volume commentaries are authored by one individual
and are thus cited like any other monograph. Others are edited volumes where more than one
person has written the commentary on individual books. In these cases, cite the author of that
section of the commentary as you would the chapter in a book with an editor (SBLHS 6.2.12).
