Download or read book An Introduction to the Old Testament Prophetic Books written by C. Hassell Bullock and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Testament prophets spoke to Israel in times of historical and moral crisis. They saw themselves as being a part of a story that God was weaving throughout history--a story of repentance, encouragement, and a coming Messiah. In this updated introductory book, each major and minor prophet and his writing are clustered with the major historical events of their time. Our generational distance from the age of the prophets might seem to be a measureless chasm. Yet we dare not make the mistake of assuming that passing years have rendered irrelevant not only the Old Testament prophets, but also the God who comprehends, spans, and transcends all time. In these pages, C. Hassell Bullock presents a clear picture of some of history's most profound spokesmen--the Old Testament prophets--and the God who shaped them.

Download or read book Plowshares Pruning Hooks written by Brent Sandy and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2014-01-06 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are we to make of Isaiah's image of Mount Zion as the highest of the mountains, or Zechariah's picture of the Mount of Olives split in two, or Daniel's "beast rising out of the sea" or Revelation's "great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns"? How can Peter claim that on the day of Pentecost the prophecy of Joel was being fulfilled, with signs in heaven and wonders on earth, the sun turned to darkness and the moon to blood? The language and imagery of biblical prophecy has been the source of puzzlement for many Christians and a point of dispute for some. How ironic that is! For the prophets and seers were the wordsmiths of their time. They took pains to speak God's word clearly and effectively to their contemporaries. How should we, as citizens of the twenty-first century, understand the imagery of this ancient biblical literature? Are there any clues in the texts themselves, any principles we can apply as we read these important but puzzling biblical texts? D. Brent Sandy carefully considers the language and imagery of prophecy and apocalyptic, how it is used, how it is fulfilled within Scripture, and how we should read it against the horizon of our future. Clearly and engagingly written, Plowshares and Pruning Hooks is the kind of book that gives its readers a new vantage point from which to view the landscape of prophetic and apocalyptic language and imagery.

Download or read book Isaiah 13 27 written by Paul R. Raabe and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This scholarly commentary expounds Isaiah 13-27, which includes ten prophetic burdens on nations surrounding Israel and an extended prophetic discourse of universal judgment and salvation. The author provides a detailed analysis of the Masoretic Text in comparison to Qumran manuscripts and the ancient versions. Each passage is interpreted in its historical context within the book of Isaiah, with scriptural and theological reflections that consider its preliminary BC realization as well as its fulfillment in Jesus Christ, its relevance for the church, and its consummation at the return of Christ. Isaiah was tremendously influential for later Old Testament authors as well as the evangelists and apostles who wrote the New Testament and who cited Jesus' own quotations of this prophet, whose book is often called "the Fifth Gospel." These chapters are crucial for understanding our God and ourselves. For over two millennia the God of ancient Israel has been fulfilling his promises spoken through Isaiah, and we ourselves are part of the fulfillment"--
