This major work re-examines prophecy and the prophets in ancient
Israel, with essays ranging all the way from Israel's ancient Near
Eastern background right up to the New Testament. The majority of
essays concentrate on prophecy and the prophets in the Old
Testament, which are approached from a remarkable number of
different angles.
Particular attention is paid to the following subjects: Prophecy
amongst Israel's ancient Near East neighbours; female prophets in
both Israel and the ancient Near East; Israelite prophecy in the
light of sociological, anthropological and psychological
approaches; Deuteronomy 18.9-22, the Prophets and Scripture;
Elijah, Elisha and prophetic succession; the theology of Amos;
Hosea and the Baal cult; the sign of Immanuel; the rewriting of
Isaiah in Isaiah 28-31; Deutero-Isaiah and monotheism; Jeremiah and
God; Aniconism and anthropomorphism in Ezekiel; Habakkuk's dialogue
with God and the language of legal disputation; Zephaniah and the
'Book of the Twelve' hypothesis; Structure and meaning in Malachi;
Prophecy and Psalmody; Prophecy in Chronicles; Prophecy in the New
Testament.
