Forming prophetic literature
essays on Isaiah and the Twelve in honor of John D.W. Watts
by James W. Watts
These essays, collected in honor of John D. Watts, address the literary, redactional and canonical questions posed by the Hebrew Bible's prophetic literature. The prophetic books have defied easy classification according to genre or facile explanation of their historical development.
Focusing on the books of Isaiah and of the Twelve Prophets, the nature and formation of prophecy as literature is probed from a variety of methodological standpoints, including textual criticism, synchronic literary analysis, tradition history and redaction criticism.
