Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These books, from what are often called the twelve prophets, continue to recount the story of the return from Babylonian exile. They speak with immediacy and power to the generation that was responsible for writing down and organizing the Hebrew Scriptures and founding Judaism as a religion, not just an ethnic identity. Haggai demonstrates how not to be a prophet, as his wildly optimistic and date-specific predictions don't come true. Zechariah then tries to restore the reputation of the prophets after Jeremiah denounces them as liars. A central issue is the rebuilding of the temple-how can it replace the celebrated temple of Solomon? Should it be built before the people even have the resources to build their own houses? When did God leave the temple, and what will convince God to return? These postexilic prophets affirm the many traditions of the people of Judah and Israel, who are still reeling from exile, offering them hope and direction. They promise that God's justice will include punishment of their enemies and a full restoration of God's people. John J. Collins is Holmes Professor of Old Testament at Yale Divinity School. A native of Ireland, he has a doctorate from Harvard University, and earlier taught at the University of Chicago, and the University of Notre Dame. He has published widely on the subjects of apocalypticism, wisdom, Hellenistic Judaism, and the Dead Sea Scrolls and served as president of both the Catholic Biblical Association and the Society of Biblical Literature.

This book was released on 2024-04-18 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eloquent and uncompromising calls for social righteousness by the Minor Prophets are familiar to many, yet the writings themselves are probably the least-studied and least-known texts of the Old Testament. Those who are familiar with these books are also aware of the historical and literary problems that plague their study. Drawing on theological, historical, and literary insights, Leslie Allen’s commentary on Joel, Obadiah, Jonah, and Micah carefully and imaginatively reconstructs the context in which the original Hebrew audience received the prophets’ messages. In turn, Allen shows what relevance they hold for contemporary Christians. For each of the books, Allen includes a substantial introduction, presenting and assessing a broad range of scholarship, a select bibliography, and an extensive commentary on the author’s own translation of the text. Allen pays special attention to Micah, in which he treats at greater length many of the forms and motifs that also appear in Joel, Obadiah, and Jonah. The introductory material for Joel includes discussions of canonicity and textual criticism that apply to the entire volume.

Longlisted for the Sunday Times Fiction Prize SA Nominated for the 2020 Nommo Awards for Speculative Fiction by Africans "Will have you ripping through the pages. Part thriller, part horror, part speculative fiction: this gripping read goes to the heart of ethical quandaries, forcing the reader to ask: "What if it were me?" Sunday Times (SA) Malachi, a mute thirty-year-old man, has just received an extraordinary job offer. In exchange for six months as a warden on a top-secret organ-farming project, Raizier Pharmaceuticals will graft Malachi a new tongue. So Malachi finds himself on an oilrig among warlords and mass murderers. But are the prisoner-donors as evil as Raizier says? Do they deserve their fate? As doubt starts to grow, the stories of the desperate will not be silenced – not even his own. Covertly Malachi comes to know them, even the ones he fears, and he must make a choice – if he wants to save one, he must save them all. And risk everything, including himself. "Sharp and compact but devastatingly poetic. This book packs real power into every page." Charlie Human "Farren has created an extraordinary narrator in Malachi... [An] intense and memorable [read]."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The books of Joel, Haggai, Obadiah, Nahum, and Malachi are part of the Old Testament in the Bible and are known as prophetic books. Each book addresses different historical contexts and contains messages from the respective prophets. Here's a brief overview of what each book deals with: Joel: The book of Joel focuses on the theme of judgment and restoration. It begins with a description of a devastating locust plague and calls for repentance. Joel sees this plague as a warning of the Day of the Lord, a future time of divine judgment. He urges the people to turn back to God, promising restoration and blessings for those who repent. Haggai: Haggai was a prophet who spoke to the Jewish community in Jerusalem after their return from exile in Babylon. The book of Haggai addresses the people's indifference towards rebuilding the temple. Haggai calls for a renewed focus on rebuilding the house of God, encouraging the people to prioritize their spiritual responsibilities. He promises that God's presence will return to the temple and bring blessings to the people. Obadiah: The book of Obadiah is the shortest book in the Old Testament and contains a message of judgment against the nation of Edom. Edom was a neighboring nation of Israel that had a history of hostility and aggression towards Israel. Obadiah's prophecy declares that Edom will be brought low and held accountable for its actions. It also includes promises of restoration for Israel in contrast to the fate of Edom. Nahum: Nahum prophesied against the city of Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire. The Assyrians were known for their cruelty and oppression, particularly towards the Israelites. Nahum predicts the downfall of Nineveh and the end of Assyrian dominance, bringing comfort to the oppressed. The book highlights God's justice and the eventual deliverance of those who suffer under oppressive powers. Malachi: Malachi is the last book in the Old Testament, and it addresses the spiritual and moral decline among the people of Israel after their return from exile. Malachi rebukes the priests and the people for their corrupt practices, such as offering blemished sacrifices and neglecting their religious duties. The book emphasizes the importance of true worship and genuine repentance, and it concludes with the promise of the coming of the Messiah. These books contain a mix of messages of judgment, restoration, repentance, and promises of future blessings. They provide historical context and spiritual guidance to the people of Israel during different periods in their history.
