Hosea

Francis I. Andersen

4.1/5 ( ratings)

Hosea, in the Anchor Bible series of book-by-book translations of the Old and New Testaments and Apocrypha, is a collaboration by world-renowned scholars Francis I. Andersen and David Noel Freedman. The authors' treatment of "Hosea" consists of:
Introduction - a review and rethinking of Hosea research that offers a fascinating interpretation of the prophet's life and work;
Translation - based on one of the oldest of prophetic writings, this new translation of "Hosea" is unique in so far as the literary integrity of the text is scrupulously adhered to;
Notes - for both scholar and general reader there is cultural and linguistic information which sets each passage within the sociohistoric context of eighth century B.C.E. ; and,
Illustrations - eight pages of photographs will take the reader through the ancient days of the Middle Bronze Age into the wonders of the Iron Age in which Hosea lived.
