Description

Internationally renowned scholar Erhard Gerstenberger here offers a radical departure from traditional treatments. Rather than a systematic approach to theological topics in the Old Testament, Gerstenberger discusses its various theological voices rooted in different social settings within ancient Israel: the family and clan, the village, the tribal group, and the kingdom. Further, he discusses the variety of Israel's views concerning the divinepolytheism, syncretism, and monotheism. Gerstenberger concludes with his reflections on how contemporary theology is informed by the biblical witness and how it must be contextual and ecumenical in order to be authentic.

Author Biography:

Erhard S. Gerstenberger (Emeritus Professor of Old Testament, Marburg University, Germany) is a widely published author. His books in English are: Yahweh the Patriarch (Fortress Press, 1996), Psalms 1: With an Introduction to Cultic Poetry (1988), Psalms 2 and Lamentations (2001), Woman and Man (1981), and Suffering (1980). His theological perspective has been informed not only by currents in German theology but also by his years of teaching in South America.
