"An excellent introduction to the prophets and the prophetic literature . . . The goal of the book is to understand the thought of the prophets in their historical contexts, and to communicate that understanding for our time. Its approach, while innovative, builds upon he best of contemporary analysis of the prophetic literature."" —Gene M. Tucker Candler School of Theology Emory University ""Koch's first volume on the prophets of ancient Israel displays his sound and creative scholarship and will fill a bibliographical gap. He displays the individuality of each prophet with perceptive insight, but he also compares and interrelates them in his various summaries. Furthermore, Koch relates his study of individual prophets to theological currents that have been flowing through the scholarly world in recent decades."" —Bernhard W. Anderson Princeton Theological Seminary

Die Profeten 2: Babylonisch-persische Zeit (Urban-taschenbucher) (German Edition)

Kohlhammer Verlag

Die kritische Profetie, rund 300 Jahre als religiose Bewegung im alten Israel wirksam, hat wesentliche Voraussetzungen fur die monotheistische Idee und die soziale Verantwortung des Menschen formuliert. Diese sind zur Grundlage von Denken, Glauben und Leben in Christentum und Judentum geworden. Die vorliegende Darstellung schildert den durch die Botschaft der Schriftprofeten angebahnten Umbruch in der Religion des alten Israel. Ihre Bucher sind jedoch nicht in der Urfassung erhalten, sondern erweitert durch nachtragliche, aktualisierende Redaktionen. Die neu bearbeitete dritte Auflage nimmt jeweils bei der redaktionellen Endfassung ihren Ausgang, um von da auf die profetischen Erstschriftstellung zuruckzuschliessen und den spezifischen Beitrag der grossen profetischen Erneuerer zu erheben.
