Reviews for Prophetic Literature: From Oracles to Books
“as an introductory work, it is especially valuable because he is not sidetracked by extremely nuanced academic disagreement. He focuses on the broader structure of each prophet and how the composition reflects scribal changes and developments.” (The Biblical Review, 1 November 2015)
