### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fascinating insights into hard to understand material
  

*by J***7 on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2017*

This is an attempt to cover all the prophets of the Old Testament. While some later chapters feel a bit truncated the earlier and middle works are great. The author, if I remember correctly, covers the prophetic writings in chronological order, not biblical order. What I found absolutely amazing were his grasp of the history of each prophet and how he connected different writings into a history. His theological and historical insights into various passages of the books amazed me. Highly recommended.

    Vital and comrehensive.
  

*by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2013*

This introduction is very thorough...and a great jumping-off point for deeper study of a particular prophet. After discussing Near Eastern geography the book moves to talking about various types 'prophecy'. The book then proceeds chronologically, covering most biblical prophets, their contexts, and their messages.Matthews assumes the Documentary Hypothesis and shows how the prophets fit in with the development of Hebrew religion. Important terms which reoccur appear in boldface and there is a glossary of these terms. A great companion to Mark Smith's 'Memoirs of God'.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A Great Introduction
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2015*

This book would better be called an introduction to the Hebrew prophets. It admirably fulfills that role. Reading the title, I thought the book would situate the prophets in their social location. It is weak at that. When a prophet's social location is described, it's as if it's an interesting, though largely irrelevant, fact. On a second level, Matthews is aware of the Deuteronomistic Historian's role in the formation of the text; however, he rarely considers what, if any, effect that role had on the text and its description of the prophets social location. This really is an excellent introduction; I'm not sure it lives up to truth in titling.
