Bonds of Love: Methodic Studies of Prophetic Texts with Marriage Imagery (Isaiah 50: 1-3 and 54: 1-10, Hosea 1-3, Jeremiah 2-3)

by R. Abma

Bonds of Love offers a fresh interpretation of a selection of prophetic texts that present the covenant relationship as a marital relationship. The accent in this study is on method. Historical and biographical categories such as 'the prophet' and 'his career' are left aside in order to concentrate on the composition and internal cohesion of the text.
This volume will be of interest to specialists in the field of prophetic studies, biblical theologians and scholars in related fields.
