Rhetoric of Revelation in Hebrew Bi: Ocertures to Biblical Theology

In this exciting new Overtures volume, Dale Patrick brings a fresh approach to the question of how understanding rhetoric helps us - specifically as readers of the Bible - to understand ancient Israel's perception of how God communicates. Patrick focuses on key passages in the Hebrew Bible to demonstrate the usefulness of rhetorical analysis: the call of Moses, the Ten Commandments (as a whole). the first commandment, prophetic judgment speeches, and laments over the exile.
