Reviews
Review from previous edition The author considers the prophet's ethical message, and he does so with great success ... An excellent contribution to prophetic studies. * International Review of Biblical Studies *
Fine contribution to both a more rigorous methodology for examining Ezekiel texts, and a distinct advance in understanding the unity and purpose of the judgment oracles in Ezekiel. * Biblica *
A valuable contribution to the study of the prophet. Its chief importance lies in its careful inquiry into a basic feature of ethics that has not been taken into account in the main studies of Old Testament ethics: the close relation between ethics and social situation. Mein has shown how a detailed examination of one prophet in the light of sociological theory can take us a considerable way in understanding this. * Theology *
In this very fine study Andrew Mein both stimulates our interest in the work of the prophet and makes a major advance in the study of Old Testament ethics. * Theology *
