About the Book

This volume offers an up-to-date guide to the study of Isaiah 1-39 for students and scholars in the field of Hebrew Bible studies. Marvin Sweeney provides discussion of the role of these chapters within the Book of Isaiah as a whole together with discussion of each of the major segments of Isaiah 1-39 and their component parts. Issues treated include discussion of the formal structure of the Book of Isaiah as a whole, the formation of each major segment of chapters 1-39, the compositional history of the book, the historical background, literary character, and theological perspective for each component of Isaiah 1-39, treatment of its distinctive language, and discussion of major elements of the reception history. Overall, the discussion demonstrates how Isaiah 1-39 and the Book of Isaiah as a whole emerged as one of the most important works of the Hebrew Bible.

About the Author :
Marvin A. Sweeney is Professor of Hebrew Bible at the Claremont School of Theology, Los Angeles. He is the author of some twenty volumes in the fields of Hebrew Bible and Jewish Studies.

Review :
"Marvin Sweeney has few peers as a scholar of Isaiah, and in this brief volume he gifts his readers with an updated overview of his thinking about the book. Deeply conversant with the scholarship and ongoing traditions around the book, and presented in a highly readable form, this is a significant contribution and would serve well in the classroom." --Christopher B. Hayes, D. Wilson Moore Professor of Old Testament and ANE Studies, Fuller Theological Seminary "Anyone looking for a clear and easily comprehensible guide to the book of Isaiah will find, in this concise book, a user-friendly app and a private tutor judiciously programmed by a maestro of Isaiah scholarship in our time. The book unlocks the most essential keys for literary features, editorial developments, historical backgrounds, and theological interpretations so intelligibly that once readers open this book, it will be difficult to stop reading it until completion." --Hyun Chul Paul Kim, Harold B. Williams Professor of Hebrew Bible, Methodist Theological School in Ohio
