Transforming Visions - Paperback
by William A. Tooman (Editor), Michael A. Lyons (Editor), Marvin a. Sweeney (Foreword by)
This volume includes nine essays that move Ezekiel's creative reuse of older materials to the foreground of discussion. The essays highlight the transformation of earlier texts, traditions, and theology in Ezekiel. They explore the diverse ways that Ezekiel reshapes Israel's legal texts, rituals, oracles against foreign nations, royal ideology, conception of the individual, remembrance of the past, and hope for the future. The work concludes by noting the subsequent transformation of Ezekiel in scribal transmission and in the New Testament. CONTRIBUTORS: Daniel I.
