Download or read book Micah written by Max L Margolis and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-11 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jewish Publication Society is engaged in the preparation of a new translation of the Old Testament which is being carried on under the editorship of Dr. Margolis. Parallel to this is a new series of popular commentaries on the Old Testament, of which the volume on Micah is the first to appear. The characteristic features of the commentary are (1) a new translation, printed as poetry; (2) brief comments and introduction; (3) a larger use of rabbinical interpretative material than is customary in modern commentaries, and (4) a quite conservative attitude toward both textual and historical criticism. The author stands with the minority in upholding the unity of Micah, but does not adduce any new considerations in support of this position. The translation is good and the comments good enough to make us wish for more. -"The American Journal of Theology," Volume 13 [1909]

Download or read book Micah written by Francis I. Andersen and published by Anchor Bible. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the twelve minor prophets, Micah unwaveringly spoke God's message to Israel--a message filled with judgment but also laced with the promise of redemption. Micah combined poetic complexity and literary sophistication to compel his audience to respond. And now, through an exacting linguistic and literary analysis of the biblical text, coauthors Francis I. Andersen and David Noel Freedman explain what Micah meant to his contemporaries, as well as what his message means to readers today. What sets Micah apart is the attention it pays to the details of the prophet's original text. The commentary is descriptive rather than speculative, philological rather than theological. With unusal care, the authors--two of the world's leading Bible scholars--examine the features of Micah's biblical Hebrew and prophetic discourse. They discover the use of a special kind of language, which, in its poetic compostion, differs significantly from the language of classical Hebrew prose. At the zenith of their careers, masters of all relevant disciplines, Andersen and Freedman are the perfect duo to unlock the words of this challenging prophet.
Download or read book Micah written by Ehud Ben Zvi and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2000-02-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ehud Ben Zvi explores the prophetic book of Micah as a written document that presents itself as YHWH’s word. He examines how Micah was read by its ancient audience and explores the social setting upon which the biblical book stands. Emphasis is placed on the construction of the past, on the images of the future, and on the relevance of both of these to the current community of readers for whom the book was intended. The commentary not only deals extensively with the message of Micah but with the social function of this and other prophetic books in ancient Israel. Ben Zvi’s various lines of investigation lead to a deeper understanding of Micah and its enduring message.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Massoretic d104 and the Ancient Versions of the Book of Micah In the writer of an essay on the text of Micah it would he mere affectation to profess that he has attacked the subject without knowing, and to some extent being affected by, the views of others. He would at the outset lie open to the pertinent inquiry into the reason for his selecting this particular portion of the Old Testament. The present writer was fully aware of the existence of two directly opposed opinions, one of which holds the Massoretic d104 to be in an extremely unsatisfactory state, whilst the other maintains that it has undergone but little corruption.

Download or read book Micah written by Burkard M. Zapff and published by Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major parts of the book of Micah were probably composed in the context of a book containing a number of prophetic writings - even as many as twelve. They can therefore only be understood and interpreted adequately within that context. That process of interpretation sheds light on an essential segment of the history of Old Testament theology: it was not primarily a matter of the statements of lone individual prophetic figures but of a common testimony to YHWH's speaking and acting in the history of his people. Zapff shows this by reflecting diachronically on the results of his synchronic exegesis and so tracing the process by which the Micah document and its theological statement were formed.

Download or read book The Book of Micah written by James D. Nogalski and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2024-04-18 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the balance between judgment and hope? Micah spoke powerfully to the people of Judah millennia ago. His prophecy has the same power to change the minds and hearts of Christians today. As a volume of the New International Commentary on the Old Testament, James D. Nogalski’s fresh commentary on Micah is academically serious and pastorally relevant. Based on Nogalski’s original translation of the Hebrew text, this commentary takes seriously the historical and theological contexts of the book of Micah. The thorough introduction considers the book’s literary form, its composition, and its function in the canon, especially within the Book of the Twelve. Ample notes point readers to the most relevant, up-to-date critical scholarship. Nogalski explicates Micah’s major themes, including fidelity to Yahweh, abuses of power, and the intriguing juxtaposition of judgment and hope for God’s people. Combining scholarly rigor with an evangelical point of view, The Book of Micah serves as the perfect companion for scholars, students, and pastors seeking to understand this essential prophet.
Download or read book Micah written by Bob Becking and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new translation and commentary on the biblical book of Micah that proposes a convincing new theory of its composition history While the biblical book of Micah is most famous for its images of peace—swords forged into to plowshares, spears turned into pruning hooks—and its passages of prophetic hope, the book is largely composed of prophecies of ruin. The historical Micah, who likely lived in the late eighth century BCE, is the first recorded prophet to predict the fateful fall of Jerusalem, and he also foretells the destruction of the regions of Samaria and Judah, in addition to the more well-known promises of Judah’s eventual restoration. Bob Becking translates the Hebrew text anew and illuminates the book’s most important elements, including its literary features, political context, and composition history. Drawing on ancient Near Eastern comparative evidence, archaeological notes, and inscriptions, Becking surveys the debates surrounding the book’s interpretation and argues that it be regarded as three separate source texts: the early first chapter; a large middle section containing a proto-apocalyptic, alternating prophetic futurology collected and molded by a later redactor; and an added section advocating for legal reform under Josiah.
