  Psalms In Israels Worship Print On Demand Title

  $43.99

  A Print on Demand Title

  One of the most important contributions to our understanding of the psalms, The Psalms in Israel’s Worship by Sigmund Mowinckel has largely provided the framework and suppositions of modern Psalms study. Fully revised from the original Norwegian edition and now featuring a substantial new foreword by James Crenshaw, this classic work (two volumes in one) argues that the psalms originated in actual temple worship and were used regularly to add drama to Israel’s adoration of Yahweh.

  Throughout this fascinating work, Mowinckel carefully explores the relationship of the various psalm types to the congregation’s devotional life, including hymns of praise from Israel’s national festivals, psalms of lamentation and penitence, and personal or private psalms of thanksgiving. Other topics include the psalms’ relationship to prophecy and wisdom, their composition and collection, their style and performance, and the technical terminology involved in Psalms study.

  Spirit And The Word

  $17.00

  This volume brings together some of Mowinckel’s most important and interesting work on the prophets. He begins by introducing the reader to the method of tradition history and how it is related to form criticism and literary criticism. From this groundwork, he goes on to explore how this method is essential for analyzing the prophetic literature in the Hebrew Bible. In order to make it more helpful for students, each essay has been supplemented with additional notes and bibliography to show where the discussion has continued since Mowinckel. A bibliography of Mowinckel’s work in English and a bibliography of essays evaluating Mowinckel’s contributions are also included. This will provide an excellent supplementary textbook for courses on the prophets.
