Mythology and Lament: Studies in the Oracles about the Nations (Society for Old Testament Study)

John B Geyer
4.9/5 (27388 ratings)
Description:"The current convulsions of the political world involve the three main religions: Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Believers need to have a clear idea about the teaching of their own documents about the nations of the world, and non-believers should have access to their doctrine. Many views occur in the Hebrew Bible." The oracles about the nations in Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel originate in the ancient Laments. Ultimately they were preserved because of their relevance to the Year of Jubilee, with its origins in the New Year Festival; this study illuminates their intention. John Geyer shows that the oracles belong to the sphere of worship, making a theological (mythological) statement, not a political one. Relating to current debates about the historicity of the Hebrew Bible, the author also provides a theologial context to questions of conflict of nations and environmental debates.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
