Reading the Latter Prophets (Journal For The Study Of The Old Testament Supplement Series)
Edgar W. ConradPaperback 2004-07-01

Edgar W. Conrad focuses on the prophetic books as composite collections and shows that* Prophets are characters in the text, depicted as figures of the past whose words are significant for a later time.

Read as a whole, The Latter Prophets depicts the end of prophecy and the emergence of messengers of the Lord. Reading the Latter Prophets is an important contribution to the problems of both the formation and function of the prophetic literature.
