Prophecy and the Prophets in Ancient Israel

This important work on Prophecy and the Prophets in Ancient Israel is the product of an impressive international team of twenty-three outstanding scholars. The volume approaches its subject from a remarkable number of different angles, with essays ranging from Israel's ancient Near Eastern background right through to the New Testament, but the majority of essays concentrate on Prophecy and the Prophets in the Old Testament. All the contributions, previously unpublished, arise from papers delivered at the Oxford Old Testament seminar.
