The biblical prophets and Biblical Performance Criticism are brought together in three case studies (Elijah, Ezekiel, Jonah) presented as performances. This book proposes a new method of reading the biblical prophets with a threefold focus on creativity, commentary, and connections. With this method the many and varied performances of the prophets can be better appreciated. Critical analysis of the quintessentially performative nature of the prophets as embodied spokespersons for YHWH aids us in understanding and clarifying YHWH’s message to audiences, situations, and communities of the past as well as engaging contemporary audiences.

The Israelite prophets as historical persons, as literary characters and as anonymous artists. Whereas modern methods of literary analysis have brought the artistic qualities of the books of the Prophets increasingly into focus during the past century, various modes of deconstruction have made the historical prophets themselves an ever more elusive phenomenon. Passages in the Old Testament describing their work and experiences are not read as biography anymore, but as literary fiction intended to picture the prophets as heroes of faith. The real ‘prophets’ were the anonymous artists who were responsible for the final editing of the legacy of the historical prophets and who often used the authority of their predecessors to promulgate their own theological views. This volume brings together studies about this theme by members of the British and Dutch societies for Old Testament study. Attempts to recover some of the biographical data and authentic experiences of the prophets alternate with penetrating analyses of the theological depth and stylistic virtuosity of the prophetic books.The volume will be particularly useful to all those interested in the interpretation of the prophetic books of the Old Testament.

This book offers a new and fruitful approach to a major area of Old Testament study. Expressing dissatisfaction with current critical theories of Israelite prophecy, which have regularly depended on the categories of office and charisma to designate essential features, Petersen looks instead to modern 'role theory' for a conceptual apparatus which can take account not only of what prophets regularly did in common but also of the significant variety apparent in Israelite prophetic performance.

Now that we have entered the new millennium, we have all encountered books of prophecy speculating on Armageddon and the end of days. The Art of Prophecy is not an apocalyptic vision of unfulfilled prophecy. The Art of Prophecy presents individual Old Testament prophecies of Christ accompanied by their New Testament fulfillments and the artwork of the masters depicting the events. Prior to Gutenberg's invention of the printing press in 1455, people did not have mass access to the Bible. Even after that time, very few could read. Artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Rembrandt were commissioned to create these masterpieces -- to convey God's word to those who could not read and further inspire those who could. The union of artwork with prophecy conveys a written and visual depiction of the Word of God. No other book has joined the written Word with the painted Word. Now, in your own living room or library, you can experience the passion and emotion of Biblical truth captured by the masters. Whether you are a Bible scholar, Bible novice, art lover or someone searching for inspiration and inward peace, as these biblical events pass before your eyes, you will be joining us in a celebration of the powerful Word of God and prophetic truth.

This book contains the keys that God has given me for the Christian performer. If you want to learn how to hear Gods voice when it comes to your performance then this book is for you. There is not much out here book wise for the Christian performer, but now it is. It is very important for us to hear God in every area of our lives. The performing arts can either harm people in their minds or help them in their spirits to be lead in the right direction towards Jesus Christ. This field of entertainment is very influential and as performers we need to be that positive thought provoking influence on the world.

Here is a challenge to New Testament scholars to engage in a fresh analysis of Q. The authors argue that recent American study of Q has been dominated by those trained in form-criticism and oriented to Hellenistic rather than Judean culture, resulting in the extreme atomization of the Q sayings and reconstructions of Jesus and his first followers as Cynics, and in the de-politicization and de-judaization of the Q materials and Jesus. Also determinative of the current situation has been the assumption in New Testament studies of textuality, of an ethos of written communication and of textual models for analysis. However, as is recently becoming clear from studies of oral and written communication, the communication situation of Jesus and his first followers was almost certainly oral. Horsley and Draper therefore contend that it is time the interpretation of Q took seriously the oral communication environment in which this material developed and continued before Matthew and Luke incorporated it into their Gospels. This book, then, applies approaches to oral-derived literature from oral theorists, socio-linguistics, ethnopoetics, and the ethnography of speaking to the Q materials. The result is a developing theory of oral performance that generates meaning as symbols articulated in the appropriate performance situation resonate with the cultural tradition in which the hearers are grounded. Richard A. Horsley is Professor of Classics and Religion at the University of Massachusetts, Boston. Jonathan A. Draper teaches at the University of Natal, South Africa.
