What is Social Justice and the Hebrew Bible, Volume Three (Center and Library for the Bible and Social Justice Series) about?

"In an extraordinarily long and pioneering career, Norman Gottwald has consistently kept biblical analysis and the search for social justice in close dialogue, often of a more radical kind. In this third volume of Social Justice and the Hebrew Bible, we find Gottwald engaging in detailed exegesis, the deployment of sophisticated social-science analysis, and the ever-present need to identify how and why biblical texts are liberating. This work is a must-read for anyone who holds to such ideals." --Roland Boer, author of The Sacred Economy of Ancient Israel Norman K. Gottwald, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament at New York Theological Seminary, is the author of numerous groundbreaking works, including The Tribes of Yahweh, The Hebrew Bible--A Socio-literary Introduction, and Politics in Ancient Israel. ** PART 1: EXAMINING TEXTS 1.
