Augsburg Fortress Old Testament Studies Collection (8 vols.)

This collection presents eight volumes on Old Testament theology and various Old Testament books. It provides new insights—from both Christian and Jewish communities—on each major section of the Old Testament and illustrates how the Old Testament addresses modern-day concerns. It analyzes violence in the Old Testament narrative and discourages people from using such passages as a justification to act in violence against people of different culture, religion, race, or gender. Aspects of various Old Testament books are also examined, including:

• Trauma, disaster, and healing-storytelling in Jeremiah
• New methods and models of interpretation—as well as the political and rhetorical implications—in 1 and 2 Kings
• Theological approaches to the Psalter
• Prophetic speech in ancient Israel and the Hebrew Prophets

The Logos Bible Software edition of the Augsburg Fortress Old Testament Studies Collection is designed to encourage and stimulate your study and understanding of the Hebrew Bible. Scripture passages link directly to your English translations and original-language texts, and important theological concepts link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. In addition, you can perform powerful searches by topic and find what other authors, scholars, and theologians have to say about the Old Testament.
