Doubts about the contribution of cult-prophetic speech to psalmody
remain in debate. Psalms containing first-person divine speech
exhibit numerous features and suggest life settings that conform to
actual prophetic speech. Alternative explanations lack comparable
examples external to psalms. On the other hand, Assyrian cultic
prophecies parallel the characteristics of prophetic speech found
in psalms. The Assyrian sources support possible composition and
performance scenarios that overcome objections raised against the
compatibility of genuine prophecy with psalmody. A model of cultic
prophecy remains the best explanation for the origin of psalms
containing first-person divine speech.
This authoritative volume brings together a team of world-class
scholars to cover the full range of Old Testament backgrounds
studies in a concise, up-to-date, and comprehensive manner. With
expertise in various subdisciplines of Old Testament backgrounds,
the authors illuminate the cultural, social, and historical
contexts of the world behind the Old Testament. They introduce
readers to a wide range of background materials, covering history,
geography, archaeology, and ancient Near Eastern textual and
iconographic studies. Meant to be used alongside traditional
literature-based canonical surveys, this one-stop introduction to
Old Testament backgrounds fills a gap in typical introduction to
the Bible courses. It contains over 100 illustrations, including
photographs, line drawings, maps, charts, and tables, which will
facilitate its use in the classroom.
