Description

Explore the enigmatic stories of Elisha through a scholarly lens in this specialized study. Published by Sheffield Academic Press, this work examines the Elisha material by placing it directly within the narrative framework of Genesis-2 Kings. This book investigates how these specific stories influence the way readers perceive the role of the prophet. By applying the narratological theories of Mieke Bal, David Jobling, and others, the author demonstrates how the Elisha narrative presents prophetism in a negative light. The study reveals how these accounts confine prophets to a limited scope of action within the narrative world. Ideal for students and scholars of the Old Testament, this text provides a deep look into the complexities of biblical narrative and the evolving perception of prophetic roles. It is an essential resource for those focused on Bible studies and the historical context of the Old Testament.
