The Oxford Handbook of the Prophets: OXFORD HANDBOOKS SERIES

Editat de Carolyn Sharp
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 apr 2023
The Latter Prophets--Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the Book of the Twelve--comprise a fascinating collection of prophetic oracles, narratives, and vision reports from ancient Israel and Judah. Spanning centuries and showing evidence of compositional growth and editorial elaboration over time, these prophetic books offer an unparalleled view into the cultural norms, theological convictions, and political disputes of Israelite communities caught in the maelstrom of militarized conflicts with the empires of ancient Egypt, Babylonia, and Persia. Instructive for scholar and student alike, The Oxford Handbook of the Prophets features wide-ranging discussion of ancient Near Eastern social and cultic contexts; exploration of focused topics such as the persona of the prophet and the problem of violence in prophetic rhetoric; sophisticated historical and literary analysis of key prophetic texts; issues in reception history, from these texts' earliest reinterpretations at Qumran to Christian appropriations in contemporary homiletics; feminist, materialist, and postcolonial readings engaging the insights of influential contemporary theorists; and more. The diversity of interpretive approaches, clarity of presentation, and breadth of expertise represented here will make this Handbook indispensable for research and teaching on the Latter Prophets.

Recenzii

[T]his book is, to my knowledge, the best resource available for getting up to speed on the current state of scholarly study on matters relating to the Latter Prophets. The authors are scholars well versed on the topics they cover... [T]he breadth and depth of coverage on the Latter Prophets and related themes in this volume is admirable and helpful for moving beyond what have been typical scholarly concerns on the prophets.
[T]he handbook gathers together essays of exceptional quality, most of which are written by recognized authorities in the field. As such, it provides a reliable and up-to-date point of entry to scholarship on the biblical prophetic literature. Many of the chapters would be suitable for an upper-level undergraduate classroom. For both graduate students and scholars, the volume will be a handy resource for the current state of the field.
This outstanding collection of essays presents essential literature for anyone involved in the study and/or teaching of the prophetic literature, both in terms of its individual books as of the corpus as a whole.
This hefty volume offers a wealth of material on the prophets and prophecy by leading scholars in the field. Addressing contexts, methods, and hermeneutics, it is one-stop shopping for those who want to know how this material is currently being interpreted and where the cutting edges lie...In the current moment, the prophets seem particularly germane.
Skillfully edited This is a substantial and important volume. introducing the academic study of the prophets in all of its complexity is no small task, and Sharp is to be commended on the thoroughness of the volume, along with the accessibility of the essays. The lists of further reading recommended for each essay are very helpful in and of themselves, and the indices will be a boon for those making use of the volume for study and research. With seasoned scholars leading the way, this volume will be a valuable resource for researchers, instructors, and students.
