Prophetic Literature cover

Prophetic Literature: From Oracles to Books presents an in-depth introduction to the origins and development of the Prophetic Books of the Old Testament, including an examination of the literary structure, authorship, and editorial processes that produced each book.  

  • The only introductory textbook that explores both how the prophetic books were composed and edited
  • Accessible and engaging, the book contains numerous student features to encourage learning, including introductions, summaries, tables and boxes, etc
  • Based on international scholarship on the individual prophetic books, including German scholarship that is otherwise inaccessible to most English readers

“as an introductory work, it is especially valuable because he is not sidetracked by extremely nuanced academic disagreement. He focuses on the broader structure of each prophet and how the composition reflects scribal changes and developments.”  (The Biblical Review, 1 November 2015)
