Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively delves into the authorship, content, and historical significance of the biblical prophet Joel. The author takes an original approach, strongly arguing that Joel was not merely a prophet, but a Midrash compiler of the fifth century B.C., drawing from and creatively reinterpreting the works of prior prophets, particularly with regard to the Mosaic covenant. Specifically, the author argues that Joel fundamentally reinterpreted the Exodus narrative, using it as a typological framework to shape the structure of his own work. The book meticulously examines various passages in Joel to demonstrate how they both echo and creatively depart from the Exodus account, offering a unique perspective on the development of Israelite religious thought and the literary history of the Hebrew Bible. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
