The book of Jonah has been richly commented upon by centuries of
Christians and Jews. Writers of prose and poetry have loved it as
well as those interested in liturgy. Jonah is a small book, and yet
it is placed with issues that have shown themselves existentially
powerful over time and among readers of many types and cultures. In
essence, Jonah's journey's among interpreters have had a great deal
of territory to explore. In Jonah's Journey's, Barbara Green, OP,
focuses on the character Jonah and explores the variety of ways in
which the prophet and the book have been represented and understood
by various interpreters. The question of how readers construct
meaning is central to the text. Barbara Green, OP, Ph.D., is
professor of Biblical Studies at the Dominican School of Philosophy
and Theology at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley. She is
editor of the Interfaces series published by Liturgical Press and
author of several books within the series including: King Sal's
Asking and From Earth's Creation to John's Revelation: The
Interfaces Biblical Storyline Companion.
