by Jan Bosman
Part of the Biblical Intersections series
Hardback
- Information
Description
Were issues like economic and political oppression, holy wars, resistance literature, hate-speech, xenophobia and other 21st-century realities already present among the civilizations of the ancient Near East?
Prophetic literature and specifically the Book of Nahum in the Old Testament provide a unique perspective on these issues.
Through Nahum’s moving poetry and disturbing imagery, oppression is verbalised, deep emotion is uncovered and we are given a glimpse of liberation and new hope in times of darkness.
This book will sensitize the reader to a better understanding of the identity and dynamics of oppressed groups, both ancient and modern.
