Can the biblical prophets still speak to our contemporary world? In his insightful work, Old Testament ethicist M. Daniel Carroll R. demonstrates how studying the prophets can equip us with the tools we need to be effective witnesses of Christ. This guide delves into the ethical themes found in the prophetic literature of the Old Testament, focusing on the three prophets who are most associated with social critique: Amos, Isaiah, and Micah. Carroll highlights the relevance of these prophets' concerns for those who aspire to speak with a prophetic voice in today's world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book centers on the pride that leads to injustice and the religious practices that uphold an unjust status quo, both of which bring about judgment. It also emphasizes the ethical significance of visions of restoration following divine judgment. Each of these elements in the biblical text makes a unique call to readers, urging them to respond appropriately. Furthermore, the book establishes a connection between biblical teaching and the prophetic voices of the modern era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy exploring the ethical dimensions of the Old Testament prophets, Carroll offers us valuable insights into how we can live out our faith in a world that desperately needs hope and transformation. This book is a must-read for anyone who seeks to understand the role of the prophets in shaping our understanding of God and our responsibility to the world around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 320g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 223 x 144 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781540965080\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M.
