The Goodly Fellowship of the Prophets (Acadia Studies in Bible and Theology)
Author: Christopher R. Seitz
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1441211004
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Just below the surface of any Christian view of the Bible is the knotty issue of the biblical canon. How and when was it decided which books would make up the Bible? What makes a book canonical? In this volume, respected Old Testament scholar Christopher Seitz helps readers understand how the Old Testament fits into the canon's development. Brief and readable yet substantive, this volume challenges current understandings of the formation of the Christian canon, utilizing the latest research on the biblical prophets. Seitz reveals canonical connections woven into the fabric of the Prophetic Books and argues that the Law and the Prophets cohere and give shape to the subsequent Christian canon.

Prophetic Drama in the Old Testament
Author: David Stacey
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 153265863X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Most books on the prophets contain a page or two on what is usually called “prophetic symbolism,” but full-scale treatments are remarkably few, and in English entirely lacking. Dr. Stacey examines all the evidence in detail, considers the various explanations of the phenomenon that have been offered, gives particular attention to the apparent link with magic, and provides a model whereby these dramatic actions can be properly understood. This book is significant for the study of Hebrew religion; it also paves the way for further investigation of similar actions in the New Testament.
