Foreman, Benjamin A.
Animal Metaphors and the People of Israel in the Book of Jeremiah

In the study the author is examining the language and imagery of the animal metaphors for the people of Israel in the book of Jeremiah. The contribution that these metaphors make to the theology of the book is given special attention, and since different interpretations have been given to many of the metaphors in question, the author resolves some of the questions regarding the meaning of these images in his in-depth study.
