Product Description

Synopsis

The "Old Testament's" wisdom literature offers one of the most intriguing collections of biblical books ("Proverbs", "Job", the "Psalms about Torah" and wisdom, "Ecclesiastes", "Qoheleth", "Ben Sira", and the "Wisdom of Solomon"). In this magisterial textbook, preeminent wisdom scholar Leo G. Perdue sets each book of wisdom in its historical context, examining the conditions that produced the book and shaped its thinking. This allows him to show how wisdom thought changed over time in response to shifting historical and social conditions. Not only analyzing the historical setting of wisdom, Perdue discerns the theological themes and theological developments within this rich literature.
