The Psalms and Wisdom Literature is one of six textbooks covering
the Old and New Testaments, all written by authors who have
extensive experience of teaching students in their first two years
of university-level study. This book offers an exploratory approach
that enables students to engage with the text for themselves, and
not simply to be passive learners. It provides activities and
challenges at introductory and intermediate levels, the key
background information needed to work at the required level, and
ideas for further theological thought and reading. Students will
discover: the kind of literature they are dealing with; the major
questions in the scholarly study of these books; the structure and
purpose of the books; the major themes and theology of each book;
issues for today arising from each area of study. 'A study of the
prophets that will serve admirably as a textbook for a class or a
resource for individual study. I recommend this book highly to all
who want to learn more about this important part of Hebrew
Scriptures'. Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of
Biblical Studies, Westmont College 'I have found the range of
topics treated by Lucas enormously impressive. From all the usual
introductory topics through to detailed guidelines for
interpretation, students will find here admirable summaries of the
main scholarly views together with sensible comments to help
evaluate them. I know of no other textbook on the Psalms and
Writings that will service its intended readership so helpfully'.
Professor H.G.M. Williamson, Regius Professor of Hebrew, University
of Oxford Comments on Exploring the Old Testament: The Prophets:
'It fulfils superbly its aim of making the prophets accessible to
the student reader' Professor Robert P. Gordon, University of
Cambridge.
