These five Old Testament books, traditionally known simply as "the
Scrolls," are among the most neglected parts of the Christian
Bible. In Judaism, the Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations,
Ecclesiastes and Esther were eventually adopted as lectionary
readings for five of the major festivals. In Christian tradition,
however, no consensus has emerged about their proper use. Each book
presents particular difficulties with regard to how it relates to
the rest of Scripture and how it should be understood as the Word
of God for us today. InFive Festal Garments Barry Webb offers a
Christian interpretation of these problematic writings. He allows
each book to set its own agenda, and then examines each in relation
to the wider Old Testament and to the New Testament gospel with its
basic structure of promise and fulfillment. In this way, Webb
presents fresh and illuminating perspectives on these five "festal
garments" of love, kindness, suffering, vexation and deliverance.
