Micah - Paperback
by Ehud Ben Zvi (Author)
Ehud Ben Zvi explores the prophetic book of Micah as a written document that presents itself as YHWH's word. He examines how Micah was read by its ancient audience and explores the social setting upon which the biblical book stands. Emphasis is placed on the construction of the past, on the images of the future, and on the relevance of both of these to the current community of readers for whom the book was intended. The commentary not only deals extensively with the message of Micah but with the social function of this and other prophetic books in ancient Israel. Ben Zvi's various lines of investigation lead to a deeper understanding of Micah and its enduring message.
Ehud Ben Zvi is professor of history and religious studies at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. His previous books on the Hebrew Bible include Signs of Jonah: Reading and Rereading in Ancient Yehud, A Historical-Critical Study of the Book of Obadiah, A Historical-Critical Study of the Book of Zephaniah, and the FOTL commentary on Micah.
