Praise and Petition in the Old Testament: Essays on the Psalms, Volume 2 by Erha

Description: Praise and Petition in the Old Testament by Erhard S. Gerstenberger, K.C. Hanson For six decades, Erhard Gerstenberger was a leader in the study of the Psalms and ancient Israelite poetry. The essays in this volume bring together some of his key contributions reflecting on two fundamental forms of prayer in the biblical tradition: praise and petition. Both the student and the experienced researcher will be enriched by the depth and clarity of perspective that Gerstenberger brings. One of the essays (chapter 4) appears here for the first time in any language. Contents 1. Petition and Praise: Basic Forms of Prayer in Babylonian and Hebrew Traditions 2. "Where Is God?" The Cry of the Psalmist 3. Complaint and Confession: Psalm 69 4. Form Criticism in Action: Psalm 22 5. New Form Criticism: Psalm 55 6. Jeremiahs Complaints: Observations on Jer 15:1-21 7. Elusive Lamentations: What Are They About? FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Erhard S. Gerstenberger was Professor of Old Testament Emeritus at the University of Marburg. Among his many publications are Der bittende Mensch (1980/2010), Psalms, Part 1: With an Introduction to Cultic Poetry (1988), Yahweh--the Patriarch (1996/2021), Leviticus (1996), Psalms, Part 2 and Lamentations (2001), Theologies in the Old Testament (2002), Israel in the Persian Period (2012), and Charting the Course of Psalms Research (Cascade, 2022). Review "Erhard Gerstenberger, one of the great Psalms scholars of our time, passed away in 2023, much to the fields detriment. Thanks to Cascade Books and the work of editor extraordinaire K. C. Hanson, we are able to continue to learn and benefit from Gersternbergers remarkable range (he taught on three continents and took another doctorate, focusing on Sumerian hymns, at the age of 82) and deep insights in this, the second of a three-volume collection of his essays. Readers will be especially interested in the never-before published study, Form Criticism in Action: Psalm 22, which is the longest essay and centerpiece in this wonderful anthology." --Brent A.
