Inhalt:
Zephaniah's Oracles against the Nations deals with exegetical methods as well as their application to the text. The first part of the book examines the Hebrew text from the viewpoint of synchrony, employing insights from modern linguistic and literary theory. Such important concepts as text-grammar, textual hierarchy, communicational and actantial analysis on the one hand, and prosodic hierarchy and Hebrew versification on the other, emerge from this discussion. The second part of the book discusses diachronical matters such as the redactional process, its theological and pastoral significance, and the hermeneutical implications of such diachronical study. Of special interest are the additional sections on the issues of the so-called woe-cry and oracles against the nations in the Old Testament. This timely study is particularly useful for those interested in the linguistic analysis and literary interpretation of the Hebrew Bible
