This book focuses on the interpretation of Malachi 2:10-16, which
censures the lax marital practice of its contemporaries. In
particular, Hugenberger investigates Malachi's identification of
marriage as a "covenant" in response to recent scholarly challenges
to this identification.
Taking the issues raised by Malachi as his point of departure,
Hugenberger examines the nature of covenant and oath (including
"verba solemnia and oath-signs), and, in light of these findings,
explores the theory of marriage implied elsewhere in the Old
Testament. Included in this investigation are an analysis of the
concentric literary structure of Malachi and a study of the Old
Testament's ethical perspectives on divorce, polygamy, and sexual
fidelity.
An extensive bibliography and indices complete the book.
