4.0 out of 5 stars
273 pages of commentary on 21 verses!,
By rodboomboom (Dearborn, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Obadiah (Anchor Yale Bible Commentaries) (Hardcover)
I have learned much from Dr. Raabe's fine and thorough commentary on this scant OT book. Thorough in his treatment of background and adding his own translation, this commentary seeks to unpack what the inspired 21 verses present.Helpful was his explanation of the literary use of apostrophe, making the case for this book's real purpose: "simply unfolding and unpacking what Yahweh's future role will mean for Edom, the nations, Zion and Israel." Knowing Dr. Raabe's theology, surprised to see absence of theological application. However, possibly editorial constraints prevent their inclusion. For the serious Bible student. |
