Part of the Old Testament Theology series
Hardback
Description
The books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah address problems in and around ancient Judah in ways that are as incisive and critical as they are optimistic and constructive.
Daniel C. Timmer's The Theology of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah situates these books in their social and political contexts, examining the unique theology of each as it engages thorny problems in Judah and beyond.
In dialogue with recent scholarship, this study focuses on these books' analysis and evaluation of the world as it is, focusing on both human beings and their actions, and God's commitment to purify, restore, and perfect the world.
Timmer also surveys these books' later theological use and cultural reception.
His study brings their theology into dialogue with concerns as varied as ecology, nationalism, and widespread injustice.
It highlights the enduring significance of divine justice and grace for solid hope and effective service in our world.
