商品簡介
Becking (Old Testament, Utrecht U.) presents a coherent set of essays on the interpretation of the Old Testament passage. He emphasizes the ability to recognize the communicative patterns in a text and especially those patterns that also appear widely in the canonical literature of the Ancient Near East. His topics include a dissonant voice of hope; abbreviation, expansion, or two traditions; the macrostructure; awful terror, prophecy of liberation, and oracle of salvation; divine changeability; between anger and harmony; the metaphysical meaning of the masal in Jeremiah 31:29, covenant and creation; whether the conception coherence of the passage is based on an Exodus theology; and overwhelming wisdom, divine battle, and new life. Only authors and textual references are indexed. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
