Book Description Paperback. Condition: New. A clean crisp well preserved 1998 Baker Academic Publishing recent printing softcover in a fine tight binding. Little to no shelf wear. Text is bright and free of marks or underlining. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. According to Leon Wood, a continuity exists between Israel's earlier non writing prophets and its later prophets. Both must be studied to acquire a thorough understand of Israelite prophecy. This assertion, for which the author of this study marshals considerable evidence, underlies the entire text of this significant volume. Instead of concentrating on the prophetic writing, the author focuses on the prophets themselves, both those who recorded their messages and those who did not. "A study of the prophets themselves is most worthwhile," he writes, "for when one sees them as people, in the day and circumstances in which they lived, he has a distinct advantage for understanding what they wrote." The book begins with an informative introduction to the Israelite prophets represented in the canon; the author then discusses the non writing prophets of both the pre-monarchy era and the monarchy period.
