Book Synopsis Isaiah's Political Message by : Olof Bäckersten
Download or read book Isaiah's Political Message written by Olof Bäckersten and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have traditionally identified two fundamental, and somewhat separate, discourses in Isaiah 1-39. In what might be labelled the social-critical discourse, we supposedly encounter a prophet who condemns the Jerusalemite elite for their complacent attitudes and decadent life-style in general, and for their more or less systematic oppression of the less fortunate in particular. This lack of social justice, Isaiah emphasises, will indeed be punished by YHWH. In the discourse that might preferably be labelled foreign-political, scholars have found that the prophet repeatedly discourages Judahite participation in anti-Assyrian rebellions, since such strategies are offensive to YHWH and their plans will therefore come to nothing.Olof Backersten presents an attempt to question the existence of a social-critical discourse in Isaiah 1-39. He argues that the texts that have been proffered as proofs for such a discourse relate instead, with surprisingly few although notable exceptions, to the critique of Judah's anti-Assyrian policy.The result of this investigation has implications for our understanding of the book of Isaiah as a whole. A social-critical emphasis can only be detected in Isaiah 1 and Isaiah 56-66, whereas Isaiah 2-39(55) provides variations on a foreign-political theme in the sense that the focus falls on the relationship between nations in general and Judah's position on the international arena in particular.

Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking literary analysis of Isaiah, Avraham Gileadi leads the layman and scholar to discover Isaiah's apocalyptic message and messianic theology. The ancient writings of Isaiah now appear -- through Gileadi's illuminating work -- to bridge the gap between the Old and New Testaments, with an ennobling view of the Messiah acceptable to both Jew and Gentile. Employing sophisticated literary structures, isaiah draws on events out of Israel's past to communicate the future and answers pressing political and religious questions of our day by giving us a preview of what will transpire in the "last days" of the history of humanity. The Literary Message of Isaiah will revolutionize your understanding of Hebrew prophecy and profoundly enrich your love for the Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first part of a 2-volume work, this study combines recent approaches that treat the formation and early interpretation of the final form of the book of Isaiah with the more conventional historical-critical methods that treat the use of traditions by Isaiah's authors and editors. Studies investigate Isaiah's use of early sacred tradition, the editing and contextualization of oracles within the Isaianic tradition itself, and the interpretation of the book of Isaiah in later traditions (as seen in the various versions of the text and various communities). Contributors of this volume include virtually all of the major scholars of Isaiah and the leading scholars of biblical interpretation in the intertestamental, New Testament, and early Jewish periods.

Download or read book Isaiah and His Interpreters written by John J. Schmitt and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isaiah and his interpreters sympathetically presents and analyzes what scholars have proposed as the main thrust of Isaiah's preaching--Doom, Conversion, Promise, Purification--and shows that they all have a solid base in the text of the book of prophets. The different interpretations of Isaiah, and other aspects, such as the prophet's use of language, the theory of his connection with the wisdom tradition in ancient Israel, and the processes by which his words have come down to us, are all clearly treated in this volume. This comprehensive survey brings the reader up-to-date with all modern schools of thought about Isaiah. Dr. Scmitt enables us to see Isaiah, not only as one who foretold the company of the Messiah, but, most importantly, as a fellow believer who guides us in our religious strivings.--from back cover.

Book Synopsis Isaiah's Kingship Polemic by : William D. Barker
Download or read book Isaiah's Kingship Polemic written by William D. Barker and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William D. Barker analyzes a wide array of possible ancient Near Eastern backgrounds to Isaiah 24-27. He finds that there is a uniquely Ugaritic background to the chapters, with evidence of a literary framework and narrative progression that has been intentionally adopted and creatively adapted from either the Ba'al Myth (KTU 1.1-1.6) itself or a shared tradition between ancient Ugarit and ancient Israel. Barker also closely examines Isaiah 24-27 in the light of the Ugaritic material and thereby contributes to the resolution of some of the historic questions about the interpretation, genre, dating, and function of Isaiah 24-27. A new epithet for the chapters is also proposed.
