A Theological Handbook of Old Testament Themes

With his typical interpretive coherence, Walter Brueggemann explores more than 100 Old Testament themes-from "ancestors" to "YHWH." Providing much more than dictionary-style entries, Brueggemann acknowledges the deep interconnectedness of these themes as he explores their depth, complexities, and interrelationships. By reading across the entries, readers will sense the dynamism of the faith of ancient Israel. Each entry states the consensus reading, identifies what is at issue in the interpretive question, and discusses the practical significance of the issue for the church today-in part by suggesting contemporary connections to the ancient texts. Reverberations of Faith will be a great resource for both students and laity. Walter Brueggemann is William Marcellus McPheeters Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary. A preeminent biblical scholar and a prolific writer, he has written the Westminster Bible Companion's commentary on Isaiah as well as Interpretation's Genesis, released a new edition of his classic The Bible Makes Sense, and co-authored Struggling with Scripture-all available from Westminster John Knox Press.
