Description
Summary:The provision of a foreword by Walter Moberly reflects this monograph’s origin as a Durham dissertation written under his supervision, and it manifests three of his own characteristics—a willingness to engage with challenging texts, a close and careful attention to the chosen text (Jeremiah’s Moab prophecy) such as will satisfy the most rigorous textual scholar, and an interest in what Dr Woods calls a “Christian reading” of it., The monograph begins with a survey of work on the prophecies about foreign nations in the Prophets and in Jeremiah in particular (I regret that it retains the expression ‘oracles against the nations’, since the preposition at least oversimplifies the prophecies’ nature).
