Here is a fascinating study that contributes much to our
understanding of the Gospel tradition and, in addition, provides
evidence that biblical theology is still alive and
flourishing.Morna Hooker reviews the prophetic actions in the Old
Testament and compares these with the way in which prophetic
figures behaved in Jesus' day, in particular John the Baptist and
the so-called sign prophets.She then turns to Jesus and considers
those actions that can be described as prophetic signs or dramas.
Hooker discusses the sign of Jonah, Jesus' refusal to perform
signs, the miracles and other prophetic actions like the renaming
of Simon, Jesus' eating with tax-collectors and sinners, and the
prophetic signs associated with Jerusalem, reaching a climax in the
Last Supper.A final chapter examines the different ways in which
the four evangelists interpreted Jesus' prophetic actions.
