The Book of the Twelve

An Anthology of Prophetic Books or The Result of Complex Redactional Processes? Edited by Heiko Wenzel. With a foreword of Georg Fischer, SJ.

The Minor Prophets – One Book or Rather an Anthology? Past decades have witnessed an increasing interest in the Book of the Twelve. James Nogalski and Paul House had been at the forefront of research in this regard in presenting approaches that account for the book as a whole. Meanwhile others like Ehud Ben Zvi have some reservations. This collection of essays discusses the hermeneutical, exegetical and theological significance of these opposing perspectives and explores venues for future research. The impact on reading and reflecting on individual books is of particular interest to the various essays. - Contents: Thomas Renz: Habakkuk and Its Co-Texts. - Christopher R. Seitz: The Unique Achievement of the Book of the Twelve.
