{"product_id":"together-in-the-land-gordon-mitchell-9780567057426","title":"Together in the Land: A Reading of the Book of Joshua","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe book of Joshua is well known for its tales of slaughter and destruction. This reading shows that ambiguity created by means of juxtaposing contrasting ideas is a feature of the compositional arrangement in Joshua. While there may be a dream land emptied of foreigners awaiting Israelite occupation, there is also a grudging acceptance of co-existence in the land with a certain class of foreigner represented by the exceptional outsiders such as Rahab and Gibeonites. Mitchell's conclusion is that such ways of dealing with reality were a feature of the disillusionment and hope of post-exilic Judaism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gordon Mitchell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0567057429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780567057426\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheffield Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.48d","brand":"Gordon Mitchell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48991970361599,"sku":"9780567057426","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/together-in-the-land-gordon-mitchell-9780567057426","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
