Obadiah Through Malachi: A Case for the Literary Carnivalesque: Westminster Bible Companion
Autor William P. Brown Editat de David L. Bartlett, Patrick D. Milleren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1995
Taken together, the nine prophets found in the books Obadiah through Malachi lived during a tumultuous two hundred years of Israelite history. Their communities dealt with the crisis of the impending Assyrian threat in the eighth century and the Babylonia exile in the sixth, as well as the hopeful age of restoration in the late sixth and early fifth centuries. Intimately connected to the travails and needs of their communities, these prophets had the responsibility of bringing God's message of hope--even in the bleakest times--to their people.
