Nahum Obadiah Esther
$19.99Add to cartThis commentary concerns writings which emerged from three successive stages in Judah’s decline and captivity — the century of fear engendered by the Assyrian menace (addressed in Nahum), the shock and disorientation that followed the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem (Obadiah), and the necessary dilemma of adapting yet maintaining their uniqueness in an alien setting (Esther). All three books reflect the efforts to maintain faith despoite continued assaults on traditional views of the nature of God and the Covenant.

Amos And Lamentations
$20.99Add to cart“Here in a straightforward and readable way S. Paul Re’emi takes us into the experience of exile in Lamentations, while Robert Martin-Achard takes us behind that moment into Amos’s confrontations with Israel which preceded her exile. The commentaries enable the reader to appreciate much of the prayer and the challenge that these two books expressed, and encourage us to see them as not merely ancient texts but theological resources for the modern world.” – John Goldingay St. John’s College, Nottingham
