{"product_id":"way-metaphors-and-way-topics-oystein-lund-9783161490873","title":"Way Metaphors and Way Topics in Isaiah 40-55","description":"Oystein Lund gives a new approach to texts in Isaiah 40-55 that deal with ways and desert transformation. Earlier exegesis has mainly read these texts in a literal way. In recent years, exegetes have pointed out that the so-called 'exodus texts' should rather be interpreted metaphorically. The author supports this, and accordingly seeks to continue this discourse by systematizing, intensifying, and deepening the argumentation for a metaphorical reading. He argues that most of the way-texts in Isaiah 40-55 are interrelated, and gradually contribute to explore questions regarding the way-situation of the people. Several subsequent way-texts are related to this text, and together these draw a coherent picture in which the problematic way-situation of the people in the past and present is transformed. The author argues that such a coherent reading of the way-texts gives good meaning, which is consistent with the over all message of Isaiah 40-55.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oystein Lund\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3161490878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783161490873\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohr Siebeck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs","brand":"Oystein Lund","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113817944319,"sku":"9783161490873","price":87.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dcccad16-f1cd-439c-b51c-f00245ff4a92.jpg?v=1769617424","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/way-metaphors-and-way-topics-oystein-lund-9783161490873","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
