What is Prophecy in Ancient Israel about?
Author J. Lindblom delivers a masterful and authoritative work on the prophetic movement as a whole, and demonstrates his thesis that prophecy was not unique to ancient Israel, but may be found in a variety of cultures at different stages of religious development. Israelite prophecy (both earlier and later, classical prophecy) is, however, used as a central focal point for examination of certain characteristic psychological features that give a reference for determining commonalities. In his review of this book in The Christian Century, James Muilenberg opined, "One may well afford to do without many other books in order to secure this one," and quoted Professor T.H. Robinson, who praised the book as "probably the best and most comprehensive book on the Old Testament prophecy that has appeared in English."
