About This Book

The volume collects critical introductions, historical background, complete translations, and detailed expository chapters for nine prophetic books and Jonah, treating each prophet with a critical introduction followed by exposition and notes, discussing questions of date, authorship, textual variants, and interpretation, and offering translations and explanatory footnotes; the essays aim to present evidence, survey past scholarship, and reach provisional conclusions while limiting technical argumentation to introductions and notes so the expository chapters remain accessible, thus guiding readers through the development and variety of prophetic religion across successive historical stages.

ZEPHANIAH


Dies Iræ, Dies Illa!—ZEPH. i. 15.

 

“His book is the first tinging of prophecy with apocalypse: that is the moment which it supplies in the history of Israel’s religion.”
