Theology of the Old Testament

Testimony, Dispute, Advocacy.

In this powerful book, Walter Brueggemann moves the discussion of Old Testament
theology beyond the dominant models of previous generations. Brueggemann focuses on the metaphor and imagery of the courtroom trial in order
to regard the theological substance of the Old Testament as a series of claims
asserted for Yahweh, the God of Israel. This provides a context that attends to
pluralism in every dimension of the interpretive process and suggests links to
the plurality of voices of our time.

'Fresh, comprehensive, and stirring, Theology of the Old Testament
is the marvelous culmination of Walter Brueggemann's years of study, writing,
and teaching the Bible. Here we have the most comprehensive and important Old
Testament theology to arise out of the American scene in this century.' -
