Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Very Good+ dj. First Edition. [very light shelfwear, very faint dampstain on front board (not affecting interior in any way); jacket shows minor wear at edge and corners, a bit of fading at spine]. Novel set in Bangkok in the late 1940s, revolving around the "wife of an American diplomat [who] has the remote charm of a very beautiful woman who knows what it means to be lover instead of beloved. Her marriage to Jay Sheppard has been a second-best, kept alive because he wanted it so. But now, in the restless heat of the mango season -- those sweltering, intense days when the fruit is ripe and nature arrives at its own climax -- Nora comes to a decision which may mean a new life." The author, per her jacket bio, had spent time in Southeast Asia (including Bangkok) with her own husband, who was -- wait for it -- an American diplomat. This was her first, and apparently only, novel. Illustrated by (dj design) William Meek (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: New. A comprehensive examination of the links between wisdom literature and prophecy. The book is divided into four sections. The first addresses methodological concerns such as identifying "wisdom," identifying potential sociological spheres for wisdom and prophecy in the ancient Near East, and recognizing potential textual relationships. The second examines the role of wisdom in the prophetic corpus more broadly in a book-by-book analysis of biblical texts, first examining the role of wisdom in the prophetic corpus of the Hebrew Bible. The third section looks at elements of prophecy within the traditional wisdom books such as Job, Proverbs and Qoheleth. Finally, the book continues the conversation by providing two concluding chapters that evaluate, critique, engage, and raise new questions that Hebrew Bible scholars will need to wrestle with as the search for the relationship between wisdom and prophecy moves forward.…
