Old Testament scholar Ronald E. Clements covers many aspects of research on the forms, structure, and theological message of the prophetic writings of the Old Testament. Of special interest are Clements's seminal writings on the book of Isaiah, a book whose authorship and structure have been scrutinized by the academic world during the past thirty years. An introductory essay by Clements assesses the changing perspectives of literary and theological approaches to the study of the prophets during this same period. This book is for all who are interested in reading some compelling Old Testament scholarship from one of the most respected scholars in the field.
