AMOS AND LAMENTATIONS (GOD'S PEOPLE IN CRISIS) By Robert Martin-Achard and S Paul Re'Emi "Here in a straightforward and readable way S. Paul Re'emi takes us into the experience of exile and the anguish of Judah expressed in Lamentations, while Robert Martin-Achard takes us behind that moment into Amos's confrontations with Israel which had preceded her exile. The commentaries enable the reader to appreciate much of the prayer and the challenge that these two books expressed, and encourage us to see them as not merely ancient texts but theological resources for the modern world." --John Goldingay International in both scope and authorship and theological in approach, the INTERNATIONAL THEOLOGICAL COMMENTARY moves beyond a descriptive-historical approach to offer a relevant exegesis of the Old Testament text as Holy Scripture. The series aims, first, to develop the theological significance of the Old Testament and, second, to emphasize the relevance of each book for the life of the church.
